On July 11th Kim started another round of chemotherapy. She will be getting a 3 drug regimen. Her first day started in the treatment center at the Med Center. She received 2 different chemo drugs and was sent home with a continuous infusion of another drug called 5-FU. She will have this continuous infusion for three weeks total and then go back to the treatment center on August 1st for the other two drugs. She will then repeat the 3 weeks of 5-FU at home.
At the end of two months (2 rounds of the regimen) they will repeat her CAT scan and see how the therapy is working. If it is working they will continue with the same regimen. If it is not, there is another regimen that they would start her on.
