I often wonder what the record is for treatments with Gemczar & Abraxane? I made it through 14 months of those chemos and it still seems effective. My CT is stable to improved as of last month. Never missed one chemo due to my CBC results; my chemistry panels have been within normal limits and my CA 19-9 went from 450.4 to 18.8. Down to 8 at one time but I think my arthritis and neuropathies may be reasons for it to vary.
We have talked about changing up my therapy but that was long ago and recently we discussed taking a break. I will see my oncologist on the 26th and we can now have a serious conversation about what is next.
I found that what helps with my neuropathy to my lower legs, ankles & feet is acupuncture. The one thing I need to say is that "reversing" the neuropathy is as bad or worse than getting them. Will let you know how that will work out. I tell myself it is good to feel my feet again & then maybe I will feel safe driving again 🙂

You are blessed. My husband has not had good results with accupuncture.
