As for the every 2 weeks folfox vs 3 weeks xelox. From what I know, oxi is higher dose on the 3 week schedule (which I would expect due to the time between). You can double check tho. The pump for me was no big deal and did not get in my way even sleeping, the only thing is I didn't shower til it was off, but only 2 days anyway. I got mine every Wednesday morning and disco nurse came to my house Friday morning. I started with the baby bottle size one, later switched to a small ball about half the size. (same amount tho, weird). They give you a fanny pack to carry it in. Again, for me, no big deal at all! Some that have not done it just hated the thought of it, others for other reasons, but if you try it and don't want it, I'm sure you can switch. I also hear more se's from xeloda, but I don't personally know myself. Just a few things you may want to ask about before you decide. Btw, I LOVE my port! I have really bad veins. So anywhere that can access it for any reason, I always have them use it.
