  1. I am about to enter my fourth week of carboplatin chemo and five day radiation. I guess I wont know the effect until they take new scans in a few weeks; in the mean time I'm reading all I can. What I can glean is that they will probably do a few more chemo sessions three weeks apart and then take a watchful, hopeful position with scans of decreasing frequency. I see a problem in that when they do see a regrowth, they will reco, mmend a new treatment, perhaps one of the newer targeted therapies but the literature is full of stories of sucess measured in increase in number of months to death. That's not sucess for me. I have tolerated the initial six weeks treatment very well with no ill effects and hope to find in this support site recommendations for continuing therapies to extend any recurrence well into the future. I would welcome comments on protocalls or clinical trial that are doing that.
