Hi

Is anyone on or has been treated with Folfox a chemo drug?

  • Hello Penny01

    I hope you do not mind me responding as I had a different type of cancer to you but I noticed you had not yet had a reply. Hopefully this will bump your post and someone who has had FOLFOX will now see it and reply.

    In the meantime do please give the Support Line a call and speak to one of the nurses who will be able to give you some more info about the chemotherapy.

    Here is a link to some information that may also be of help.

  • My dad has just started Folfox. Only had one cycle so far so not much to say yet. I know he found the first 4 days the hardest. Take care xxx

  • Hi Penny 

    My husband started on Folfox chemo, he reacted to it quite well with only minimal side effects.
