Guest guest Posted May 7, 2004 Report Share Posted May 7, 2004 My friend will be taking Camptosar and Erbitux in a couple of weeks. He has just had surgery which wasn't as successful as we all hoped for. He has stage 4 colon cancer that has met. to liver. This will be is second round of chemo. I was wondering if anyone has info on how ill he might be, side effects, etc. and the effectiveness of these drugs. We are all optimistic, but have been told by others that things don't look good. I don't like to believe in timelines, but should he? I mean, some have said that it is very helpful and puts them at peace to know they have things taken care of and then they can go on with their treatments. This site has been very helpful in this time of sorrow for all of us. Any info you can pass on would be greatly appreciated. Thanks to all of you and God's blessings to all. I have had experience with Cancer since I am a 7 year breast cancer survivor, but all of this is new to me. Thanks again for your prayers and understanding.
