I was on xeloda again. I tried to be real careful this time but the diarhhea got me again. I was in the hopsital 11 days last year with it so I was aware of how fast it could get you. The Dr. said no more xeloda for me and when we get this straighten up we will go to
abraxane. I ask him what the pay off was for it because he has been keeping me om the easier side affect chemos just for contament saying there is no cure for stage 4 so he works on containment and quality of life. But we have used up navlebine, gemzar and now xeloda. He said on the harsher ones it would knock it down farther and
then I could probably take 4 to 6 months off chemo. This isn't something he has talked about before. I ask him if we could to the abraxane like we did the taxotere and carbo. three weeks on and one off. I didn't loose my hair that way and the side effects were milder. He said there hadn't been a study on using it that way but we might consider it. So what I'm wondeing is how is any one using abraxane doing and how do they take theirs? Patty h
