Hi again family and friends,
Just a quick note to let everyone know I've started weekly adriamycin. We were hoping for insurance approval of Doxil, which is very similar, but in the end they just didn't approve it because adriamycin is cheaper. Anyway, I've had three weekly doses so far and it is going okay. I'm hoping we'll see my tumor markers come down. We might still fight for Doxil since the side effects are lower (less chance of causing heart failure for starters), but also Doxil is given every three weeks versus weekly, which would be a huge benefit as you can imagine. Anyway, I'll post more soon, just wanted to let everyone know the new chemo is started and so far, going okay.
