Hello stevm,
I wish you luck in your treatment. My case was similar to yours as I was a distal, stage 2, 12 rounds of chemo; marker at 6. My surgeon thought I would go on the oral chemo, but my oncologist looked shocked when I told her. She said the usual mantra “your margins are clear and your antigen low” and said no reason for it. Now I understand that may not mean much right after chemo. My genetics like most is the KRAS g12-d. Dr never explained what that meant and only after chemo did I look it up and then understand why longevity can be a challenge with this disease without the right treatment. I take it you were a stage 2? May I ask which facility you received your care? I applaud your drs for taking that extra step of insurance in fighting this disease and wish you well.
