Hi all. My dad recently got diagnosed with Stage 3 bowel cancer and he now has two options for pre operative treatment. 

Option one - 5 weeks of radiation therapy with a week of chemotherapy at the beginning of this treatment.

Option 2 - Xelox given over a three month period which consists of 2 chemotherapy drugs, this is given intravenously and the other in tablet form.

I completely understand everyone reacts differently to treatment but I just wondered if any of you would be willing to share your own experiences with this? Thank you so much for reading :)
