looking for any experiences with metastatic SCC.

 

this cancer presents now with cannonball mets to the lungs. Chemo started last fall, cicplatin, 5FU and erbitux. 5 rounds....then a 5 week break for inability to tolerate. then two more rounds. chemo completed april 2015. dr said expect regrowth 6-12 mths.

it jas been two months amd tumours have returned. chemo starting this week again.

does anyone have experiance with starting this treatment regigm again so soon.....there is very little info to draw on.

feeling helpless
