I have Stage 3 colon cancer with one out of 17 Lymph nodes positive. Had an Assisted Laparoscopic Colectomy of the Ascending colon on 2/25/05. Talked to the Oncologist yesterday. Due to get a port for FOLFOX4 in a day or 2. I'm wondering if anyone has ever taken Xeloda and Oxaliplatin instead of a port, and how it worked. Side Effects?

On february 5th, 2004 I have had also an Assited Laparoscopic Colectomy of Colorectal (stage IV: 2 metastasis in liver and 28 lymph nodes positive). Middle March 2004 till end August 2004 I have taken Oxaliplatin + Xeloda. Side effects are important: nausea, deep pain in belly (take care don't eat too much fresh or dry fruits and salad), high sensibility in all fingers (hands and feet), something like electricity. Don't take frozen things in your hands, don't touch cold metal. All these reactions will slowly disappear 6 to 12 months after end of treatment. This chimio has not well worked, my tumoral markers were going up slowly. Since December I have had Irinotecan + 5FU but doesn't work and from middle March I have Irinotecan + Erbitux and now it's well working.
