Here we go

I spoke with Dr. Richards several times today and now know that the selected chemo protocol is DCF (Docetaxel (aka Taxotere), Cisplatin, and 5FU). The first treatment is tentatively scheduled for Thursday, 2/14 and I should get confirmation of that tomorrow.

The treatments will be every 3 weeks and we'll go 3-4 cycles before using a CT scan to gauge progress. The 3 week interval doesn't sound so bad except the 5FU component of the protocol actually is infused over 5 days. I assume that I'll learn all of the details of how that works tomorrow.

There was also a minor schedule change today as well. My chemo tutorial was re-scheduled until tomorrow afternoon.
