But it's kicking my wife worse than FOLFOX. The regime, Xeloda, Irinotecan, Avastin, Neulasta has brought the CEA down from 432 to 174!!! But she is more tired and mentally down this time.

I sat on her yesterday to make sure she drank plenty of fluids. From reading the newsgroup, this regime causes dehydration, so I'm on the lookout for that.

Hopefully, getting back to work will boost her spirits (she loves kids).
