Growing again
Right now I am tired of this CANCER. I was ok with managing it before, But this bus hit pretty hard. I am trying to get my mind wrapped around doing another hard round of chemo. I know the oxi will be hard. I am not ready to give up yet but I'm not looking forward to the next three months.

That stinks
I know how you feel...very tiring but have to press on and stay positive. I go tomorrow for treatment after having two weeks off and I dread it!! I'll be thinking and hoping the best for you.

I'm sorry to hear that you have to go back to Folfox. I to was on Irinotecan and Vectibix and it worked very well for about 10 months. then cancer showed progression so I too had to go back to Folfox and Avastin. I understand how you feel about hoping to at least be stable.I pray for that too,for both of us. It has been hard for me to accept that full blown chemo will be part of my life until the end. I hope your side effects are few and manageable and that the chemo once again kicks cancers butt.

By the way, my husband just started treatments 4 weeks apart, much better on him. Gives a better quality of life. You might ask about that.0 -

My treatment is Xelox (oxaliplatin plus Xeloda) and does not include Avastin.0 -
I am so sorry to hear that.
I am so sorry to hear that. As tiring as it is please keep fighting for your family and out of spite for cancer. Everyday we are here is a victory and one day closer to them finding a cure. Keep fighting.
