New to the Board

Hello all. Husband George diagnosed with colon cancer, Stage IV, mets to liver and lung via colonoscopy on 3/27. Transverse colon resection 4/2, just completed all 12 chemo treatments of Anzamet, Decadron, Oxaliplatin, Leukevoran, Avastin and 5FU along with the 48 hour fanny pack. Drugs were administered over a 2 day period. Oncologist very pleased so far and we are set up for scans and such next week then what I gather, more chemo, just don't know what. I have been absorbing information from you wonderful people and it has helped tremendously and finally decided to join in. My thinking at this point is after the scans and such and we see where we stand it might be the time to seek that second opinion. We are in Michigan and I'm thinking the University of Michigan or Karmanos Cancer Institute, both are very close. When first diagnosed things moved very quickly and we are very pleased with all treatment so far from the surgeons to the oncologist, but, I get the impression a second opinion does not hurt and to weigh all the options. That's about it. When I figure this system out I hope to post often but I do check the boards almost every day and want to thank each and every one of you for your wealth of information.
