Jeff, Justsing, wwroam, Joanne, and everybody else....thank you for all your encouragement. Makes me feel better about my oncologists decision to stop.My onc did tell me a few rounds ago that all the other cancers get 8 treatments, and that's all he thinks we need. But then he said..."Only a fool thinks he knows better then everybody else." From that he said we would stick with the 12 txs, the "standard of care treatment."I have been taking Lyrica for 3 days now and only have occasional dizziness, so I'm good with that.Again, thank you and God Bless you all!
