Hi all.
I have stage three lung Cancer.Been thru yhe first chemo. and radiation three years ago and have been fine until a month ago. My oncologist has given me a hard decision and any info. would be appreciated. He has said we could try Docetaxel but this drug, according to him, is used only to help with symptoms, of which I have very few, and has harsh side effects and will not increase life expectancy. The drug company info. says it was made to cut off oxygen to Cancer cells thereby shrinking them. So there is my problem. Anyone know anything that can help, as I really need info. on this drug.
Thanks in advance for any information and God Bless you all.
Sharon
