Hi Bess, He has NSCLC (squamous carcinoma). The drs gave him lots of other
meds along with the chemo to keep his strength up as much as possible and
blood tests frequently. Yes, he has neuropathy too (from diabetes as well as
from the cancer treatments). I think that's why he had a car accident last
spring - couldn't lift his foot off the gas; prob couldn't feel it. He said
his pants cuff caught the gas - but I don't think so. He even had some
serious bowel bleeding from the chemo, but with each problem, new meds offset
the side-effects and he had 6 mos of chemo all total. Just recently he
underwent 6 wks of radiation too. God bless you and your husband and have a
good Christmas. -chris
