Those Magic Numbers

The gemcetabine/cisplatin treatments have done it again. My CA125 count is down to 4. We discussed with my gynie/oncologist yesterday discontinueing the gem/cis and using another drug as a maintenance treatment. My objective is to save this gem/cis for future use as I respond so well to it when my counts go up. The question is what drug at what dose will keep the numbers down for me and how long.

So this week and next is my last on gem/cis for awhile. Today I am tired and tomorrow is a very busy day and Thursday is notoriously my worse day after this treatment. My body just crashes and refuses to go any further.

Diane, Great news!!! Based on what your saying do you also develope and imunity to gem/cis if you continue to use it or is it because of the toll it takes on the body?
