Kathy - Your post caught my eye because of the title. This is the question I keep asking "How much is too much?" I hate that there is no way for the oncologist to know until it's too late. I do not want to scare anyone, but please be aware that too much chemo can cause leukemia. Please watch your counts carefully!!!!! I wish I had stopped as soon as my counts had dropped.
