Just wondering how long you have been on chemo before a month long break?
Is your Ca 19-9 within normal range.
Will be interested to know how you do post break.

@pd65 about 6 months for a total of 12 infusions. My last CA19 read was 61 before the last infusion. I will pause any treatment for a month and then repeat all bloodwork together with CT scan. If everything is fine oncologist would like to put me on a maintenance protocol that involves only pills until some progression shows up.
