I felt the same way about getting the chemo over with before surgery (did 4 rounds, though it wasn't really up for debate). But now, I'm kind of wishing I had done 6 before so I had less to do after. Chemo was much easier for me before surgery than it has been after. Not sure if it is FOLFOX vs. FOLFIRI, ileosotomy-related, or just chemo build up after being knocked down 10 pounds by surgery (or more likely, a combination of the three). I hope you're feeling better soon!

Did you ask about calcium and magnesium?

Thanks jj,
I hope it doesn't get any worse at least. So how many after do u have now, 8? The plan for me right now is the 6 now and 6 after. I just looked, it looks like 6?
