So the 1st go at Cetuximab alone 2 weeks ago still induced mouth ulcers/mucositis.
Previously blamed on the 5fu.
Supposed to go again today.
Mouth still has sores. Bottom exits stingy. Nurse found a doctor.
Urine sample going to lab. She looked confused by results. The standard issues were not there.
Upshot is that 4 months after diagnosis, husband is still not on a treatment plan. And we are temporarily with the resident doctor while our consultant is in the Maldives.
Btw, British Airways don't refund flights.
