Started the Etoposide tablet tonight, has to be taken everyday until onc says stop, he says hopefully for four months then a CT scan to see how things are going, have reviews every 3 weeks with blood tests. Here's hoping that it does its job and controls things.

Wishing everybody best wishes

Hi Karen, wishing you a good result with it and not many side effects.

My oncologist said I could try this if the cyclophosphamide stops working.

Wishing you good luck with your Treatment, I too am on weekly taxol, saw my oncologist last Friday and my numbers had gone down so glad that the taxol is doing the job. Had my fifth chemo yesterday, only another thirteen to go. Love Julie xx
