Hi,
Thanks for your responses. I had a great trip to UK, had bone scan and chest, abdo, brain CT in July, all clear. Did a lot of thinking and decided to NOT take Xeloda (very brave or foolish). But, becuse I had the clear scans, because I had the carboplatin, because of various other quite serious stuff happening in the family, and with oncologist support etc.
Not regretting my decision, but had I been offered it post surgery instead of the carbo. I would have said yes, of course !
I am so glad we have the options that we do.
