Just finished the 6th week of my 8 week 24/7 chemo regimine. Wednesday was bad throwing up all morning then finally able to empty all the built up crap. I think that is what caused the throw up because I was so blocked up. Outside of that and being tired not to bad. Pray the next couple weeks are good. Everyone keep up the will power like so many of us are doing. Jeff

    scan after
    Will get scans after the 8th week which Im really nervous about. If scans are decent I might start on the new chemo Zaltrap. Scans should be around the first of October. Jeff

    Wow
    24/7 I've never heard of treatment that was 8 weeks of 24/7. That has to be terrible. So sorry that you are not feeling well but can totally understand with that much stuff in you. Praying for you daily and hoping that you feel better soon.
