Catitude1

How are you doing now? I had the same diagnosis two years ago, now looking at starting Folfiri.

Hi Catitude, I'm getting ready to start folfiri + pantimumab Tuesday. Sounds like you might be able to give me a guess as to what expect. I have mets to both lungs. Too many to remove. None to liver right now and a mass on adrenal gland. I must admit...this round freaking me out. My original tumor and 2 positive of 16 nodes removed in February 2012 and two lymph nodes removed in Nov 2013. Now just a few months later the two small nodes have grown to almost 11. That was quick and now I'm figuring out what is coming next. Any hints or clues? I hope things go well for you. Keep us posted!

Wow. You have been through the mill. I'm glad you shared so people can have an idea of some things that might be expected. I hope you find solutions to ease the side effects you are experiencing. Best wishes in your continued treatment.
