I just finished 25 treatments of this combination. It was easier than any of the other chemo only regimes. I am still in the stage of having residual symptoms ( it’s been 5 days since my last treatment). Primary side effect has been tiredness. Rare diarrhea, occasional mild nausea. Meds help with both. Daily they should be checking how you are doing and can offer tips to deal with issues, or refer to dr if you have concerns. You can do this!

Thank you so much for posting. I know I can't assume that my experience will be like yours, but nonetheless it's helpful to hear from someone who has been through this.

I wish you all the best -- I hope you have great results from this, and many years of good health. Thanks again.
