DH started at 114, went down, flared up, and went down to 11 after 5 months of FOLFOX. Took off the Oxy and it's been steadily increasing by a couple a points a month over the past 4 months and now he's back up to 21 as of Monday so we're a little concerned.
Can removing Oxy really make that much of a difference? His hands are much better but I don't know if he's ready to re-start it. Next would be to add Irin instead. Am going to guess the current onc who we will see on Oct. 3 (and we'll have another CEA by then) will order another CT scan and we'll go from there. Also looking forward to seeing what the other onc consult has to say as that's been moved to Sept 22.
