Hi Michele,
I got your note. Thank you so much! I forgot to take your email address when I quit my job. I have a new email it is
eamegaw@yahoo.com
I was on my 21st carbo/taxol treatment when I had an allergic reaction to the carbo, got hives, threw up, throat closed up. Did 2 more Taxol alone then scans. I had progression in 1 liver met WHILE ON CHEMO. So...my husband and I took your suggestion. I quit my job and am going on SS Disability. Please email me when you can, I miss talking to you. I have had 6 weekly treatments of Navelbine and I think the Navelbine is the easiest so far for me regarding side effects. Anyone else reading the post with questions feel free to email me.
Continued Health!
