New Medicine?

Hi Doug,
It was good to hear from you...and the fact that you and I had surgery on the same day five years ago. I am so sorry to hear that yours has spread to your liver. I don't know much about Gemzar except that its correct name is Gemzitabene, (sp?). I had 24 hour infusion of 5fu for 5 weeks and radiation at the same time. Then I had Gemzar for 9 weeks, but only one day a week. I am sorry but I have not heard of this new drug to treat pancreatic cancer. But hang in there, because they are always coming up with something else to treat this horrible disease. My prayers are with you...and don't be concerned about being too wordy in your emails...I do the same thing. You should see me email that I send out to all family and friends on my 5 year anniversary. What part of the country do you live in? I live in southern NJ and had my surgery done at the Univesity of Pennsylvania...also my chemo treatments.
Keep in touch, Russ
