Did anyone else fly through CRC and still feels in the dark?
Everyone here seems to know how fast their fingernails grow. lOl
I had six weeks of 5FU with radiation. Then went through surgery to repair the vagina that the tumor invaded as well as a colostomy. The majority of my rectum was malignant with the size of the tumor.
Just completed my third treatment of folfox.
Since I love my surgeon and his amazing knowledge, I didn't question his opinion. My husband and daughter were with me at all appointments also.
I feel like I slept most of my six weeks of chemo / radiation therapy also.
I requested all my medical records this week.
1st question. My radiologist gave me a IV B prior to my pet scan that reads III B. So which do I go with?
2nd question. I want to travel 12 hours to my home state for Thanksgiving and my next folfox is the week before. Will it hurt to neglect that treatment so I can travel with less discomfort?
Growing up in Ohio and living in SC now for two years was a good choice if I had to be treated with folfox! Love the sun verses neuropathy.
Thanks for all of your knowledge that you share. I think chemo brain had definitely set in for me!
