Cutting back the oxy

Saw the onc today and since the oxy side effects are getting worse, he decided to cut the dosage by 25% on next chemo treatment. He says if that doesn't help, we will probably stop the oxy. I have had 8 treatments and it didn't get too bad until the 7th one. I sure will be glad when all of this is done. I am thinking positive. I am hoping and praying for Ned when this is done. For all of us in fact. God Bless You All, Carletta
