Sounds good, thank you for sharing your experience.

My surgeon and GI both said the same thing, essentially that I straddle the line of doing 3 months of chemo or playing the observation game.

How bad was your neuropathy? This seems to be the most common issue with chemo. We’re you able to recover from this? Also, did you feel any major changes with your heart, during and after treatment?

It’s a gamble in my case given the situation but I agree that whichever decision I make, I can’t second guess it.

Thanks again.

Neuropathy was definitely there for me in my feet (mainly) and hands. It was more a numbness for me, but you won't want to walk on cold floors. I found "chemo brain" to be worse as my mind simply did not work very fast.
