@jimcaskowski My husband is receiving infusions 2 weeks on/1week off. It was initially to be 3 weeks in a row, but he had such a terrible time recovering from the first dose that his oncologist relaxed the schedule a bit. I’m not sure how long (how many cycles) are planned. I seem to recall a 12-week time frame being mentioned early on. Of course the treatment plan is always subject to change. I’m sorry your husband has had to be hospitalized. Sometimes it seems the cure is worse than the disease! My husband also has mouth sores—actually an area of bone poking through the gums. Dentist couldn’t explain it and thinks it could be related to the cancer. This happened before chemo began. This cancer causes so much damage. I wish you and your husband the best. Thanks for sharing your experience with me.
