wanted to thank everyone for your response to my post of Oct 14...thanks for your prayers and encouragement...we are taking things as they come....he has tried reikki twice and has found it very relaxing..still lots of edema and ascites and no energy..very difficult to climb stairs
In response to Mark asking about all the chemo he has been on...started with 5FU bolus, then went to folfiri plus avastin, then went to xeloda plus oxaliplatin (best results), then lastly to irinotecan and erbitux...is not eligible for any trials (ie VEGh trap etc because of the blood clot
Take care
Bev
