Was called by my oncologist yesterday and he said I was finished with the chemo regime I was doing. After reading the study the for swog 9019 again he discovered that the results for patients that underwent 2 rounds of chemo in conjunction with 6 weeks of radiation did just as well as people that did the above plus 2 more additional rounds of displaying and etoposide. I go in for a Ct scan on Friday and dr visit on Monday for results . I am still nauseated quite a bit even taking the anti nausea pills so will ask him about that on Monday looking forward to getting my strength back

Sending best hopes for good scan results on Monday! Nice to have a doctor who keeps up with the latest recommendations - and does not subject you to unneeded treatment. Anita
