Just thought I'd mention because I'm so happy, my CEA count is now 5.8, in March of this year it was 2154. Buying the OOU nurses a cake tomorrow and having 5.8 put on top. LOL.
Also only doing Xeloda, no Oxi for me tomorrow, yea!!!

    Yes
    Oxy - oxyplatanin(sp?) is a chemo drug commonly used to treat colorectal cancer. It is often used with 2 other drugs, 5 FU + Leucovorin (sp?). Together the three drugs are called Folfox.
