Has anyone else had their pr op FLOT sessions stopped on the 3rd cycle. I'm told I've done very well physically . I've had one set back with low sodium,  1 set back with low white cells. Both times 1 week delay. Last week I had a horrendous head and neck ache paracetamol not touching it. Due to have my 4th cycle on the Friday.  I rang the help line for advice,  shall I take a codeine.   They had me in for checking.  Long story short , bloods OK,  given some codeine.  But by then no chemo the next day,  Friday. I was told I'd have it this week.  Session with the oncologist today,  an extra appointment,  and now saying it's too late for 4th cycle as might cause severe after affects.  Talking about chemo/radiotherapy or just radiotherapy fir 5 weeks! Which I really don't want.  But as last chemo was on 1st August, I now have barely 3 weeks to prepare myself for an op.  Has anyone else been in a similar situation.  Thanks.
