Lady, those are the drugs they plan on using for my treatments. I think it will be 3 days in a row then 3 weeks off. I was reading sons of your past posts. I keep reading that people have also had radiation. No radiation was recommended to me. Where is your cancer, Lady? When were you diagnosed? Thanks.

I was diagnosed last April & was put on the same time frame as you, 3 days in a row & 3 weeks off. In between the 1st & 2nd rounds they put me on twice a day radiation treatments every week day for 5 weeks. That regime was prescribed by the Mayo oncologist & my local radiation oncologist. My cancer is in the upper section of my right lung. Radiation is not painful, just so many trips (50) Fortunately both oncologist offices are just a couple of miles apart for the overlap days.
