@jojo1966 I had 8 cycles. Then stopped the oxaliplatin due to neuropathy. Finished the last 4 cycles of everything else. This was 4 years ago and I'm am happily cancer free so far.
I did end up in the hospital 2 times so make sure you advocate for yourself if you feel "worse" than the usual pattern. I kept a daily record of how I felt.

@susanafc Hi Susan, What symptoms led you to hospitalization?
I am so glad to know you are cancer-free! Did you continue with the pump part after the first 8 cycles? Today is Day 6 and I feel pretty good and I am also keeping a daily record to give me hope on the rough days.
Please know that I appreciate your response very much.
With every good wish, Jo
