I was diagnosted with colon cancer at 49, never thought I was sick at all.
I was so busy, although I was very tired. weight stayed same no blood. But,I obstructed sigmoid and had surgery in dec 2003. It has been a wild ride since. Went to U of M and only took 4 treatments.. couldn't take them.. Three month later I had it in my lungs...... Scarey...... I thought if the chemo did'nt work the first time would it work the 2ndl.
I went to the NIH. of NIC.National institute of Caner. I was accepted into an expeirmental colorectal vaccine program which thought was working but unfortunately it did not. I was kicked out of that study and told to go home for chemo.
Now I am in chemo. Oxciplatin;; 5fu leucovorin;; Avastin. this is 7th treatment. Is anyone having problems with their hands shaking and a feeling like their idleing on the inside. I am sure it is the oxy..... Also I cry alot.........
thanks
Beth
