      My husband has Stage IV cancer and I need strength. He has used, and still uses the following:

      Treatments

      Carboplatin Too Soon to Tell
      Chemotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      Gemzar worked a little bit. Alimpta worked well for awhile. No side effects with either.
      Gemcitabine Working / Worked
      explained about Gemzar.
      Taxotere Considering
      Taxotere will be the third type of chemo. he will be getting. I'm afraid of the side effects.
