As previous posters noted, don't worry too much, FUDR was reduced for me as well. It's not uncommon on this protocol for liver enzymes to shoot up. It's probably one of the reasons why MSK is the main center in the country where HAI therapy is performed and is proven effective. It needs to have constant oversight by people thoroughly trained for it. Dr. Kemeny, although not my Oncologist, was consulted when needed by my doc. It's her protocol, with many years of proven efficacy, and they all follow it to the letter. Hang in there, she knows what she's doing.
