  16. hello..........i also get scaned every 2 cycles....the dr wants to make sure chemo is working. after my first 2 rounds i had a major shrinkage but after the next two it was not significant shrinkage..so dr changed one drug. he probably does not want to waste any rounds of chemo on you like mine does not want to.
