Hi everyone, my husband has been diagnosed with Melanoma in the lungs, we have no idea where it originally came from. He has had 2 lung surgeries to remove some nodules but they seem to have brain of their own and keep popping up. Now he has just started Chemo, a combo of IV Taxotere, 5 days of Temodar and 28 days of Thalidomide for 3 mths. The IV is only once during the month. He has the Decodron before and after the IV and Zophran for any nausea. So far he has tolerated it well other than really bad fatigue. Has anybody else been on a combo like this?
