Jenny, If you have a FAX machine, I think I can dig up some info on 5FU. M
D Anderson was most gracious in giving us reams of info on chemo drugs.
Charlie had that 24 hours a day for 2 weeks (and by the way, it completely
wiped out the primary tonsil tumor for 2 months).
Forgive me, I missed your first posts-where is your friend getting
treatment? MDA does consults and I think the world of their doctors.......
