Hi, I guess that this is a question for the oncologist. I remember asking the oncology nurse how long my chemotherapy would remain active for (I was waiting for a surgery date post chemo) and I was told 'up to four weeks after the last cycle’. I had surgery exactly two weeks afterwards, so never thought about it. It is not unusual for people to have a cycle of chemotherapy delayed, or cancelled, perhaps because of weight loss, low white cell account or other reasons and then to restart later once the issues have been addressed. But that doesn’t answer your question unfortunately, and I guess it is one for a professional. Your oncologist will have your wife’s records, and scans, and response to treatment, and may give you the personalised answer that you need. Sorry not to be of more help.
