Good news from my Oncologist
My Oncologist is very pleased with my progress and tolerance of the chemo. He says he has never had a patient do this well. I believe it is a direct result of the integrative approach being used combining my chemo with biological medicine therapy.

Hang in there, I'm sure there will be a lot of options for you. Are you being treated locally, or maybe at Wake Forest? My surgeries and scans are at Duke, and my chemo was here in Greensboro. I was referred to Duke for the original surgery given the tumor location and the specialty of the guy at Duke. That was 8 years ago, but they just found a local recurrence (rectal area), so I'm waiting for appointments with surgeon and radiologist to work on a plan of action.
I'll be in touch after I hear from you, hopefully sometime tomorrow or Friday.
Take care,
Gordon Cole

Jeanne,
I am a stage 4 colon cancer patient with mets to my live and lung. I am doing basically the same chemo routine you are. Right now I am just doing Erbitux and Irenotecan(?spelling), but will start back in Nov. to 5-Fu and Ozaliplatin. I was able after some heavy rounds of that to get my liver mets to not show up last May. I had a PET scan in May and nothing lit up also, since then I have had a CT scan that showed liver mets were back, largest 9 mm and Lung mets still there, largest 6 mm. We are going to work on knocking the liver mets at least back down and we believe that we can. It will be tough, but I think I am tougher. lol What are the alterntive therapies that you are trying? I would love to know. I am so glad to hear you are doing okay and have made some progress. We all need to keep fighting and believe that we can beat this. I have a strong faith in God and that helps me so much also. God bless, Kathy Wootten

- Thanks for the welcome, I live in an area that does not have a cancer support group and the nearest one is over an hour away. I believe in order to beat this disease you need to talk about it with people who understand what you are going through. I have wonderful family and friends but they can only understand some of it. I have plans to start a local cancer support group now that my chemo txs are done. I have my next scan in Dec and am hoping I am still NED.
