About ginger72

I have had a bowel resection for colon cancer in July this year 2020 and I am presently receiving chemotherapy as the pathologist found cancer cells in 1 lymph node. My cancer is stage 3.. I had a bad reaction to the Oxaplaitin and my oncologist discontinued it. it caused me to have a cardiac event. I am now taking Capecitebine over 4 cycles with the possibility of a further 4 cycles.
