Kate/Margerie, thank you both for your responses. I copied and pasted the entire thread and sent it to my Oncologist. He is young so he has a higher tolerance than some physicians! I told him we can discuss it at our next appointment which is not until Oct 3.

Margerie, I had to chuckled about your headaches... Some times we have to manage out health care ourselves.

Thanks again.

Louise
