Drug or Chemo Therapy: I'VE HAD 3 ROUNDS OF CHEMO SO FAR.. THE FIRST SET WAS WITH A DR IN TRAVERSE CITY....I HAD 4 OUT OF 6 TREATMENTS AND SPENT UP TO 8 DAYS IN THE HOSPITAL BECAUSE MY COUNTS ALL DROPPED SO FAR..I ALMOST DIED AND DECIDED NOT TO HAVE THE LAST 2 TREATMENTS... THE LAST 2 ROUNDS , I HAD WITH MY CURRENT DR IN ANN ARBOR....HE IS VERY UNDERSTANDING.. SITS THERE AND ANSWERS ALL QUESTIONS...THE CHEMO HE GIVES ME WAS MUCH EASIER ON MY SYSTEM.. RIGHT NOW HE HAS ME ON A PILL THAT IS SHOWN TO SLOW DOWN THE CANCER OR EVEN ELIMINATE IT... WE ARE HOPING IT DOES GOOD....TIME WILL TELL
