Thanks to Connie and Sandy( MauiGirl) for reaching out when I need it most. Hugs[/QUOT

Patti I'm sorry Ken is having so many problems. May I ask what Chemo he is on?? I know when I had chemo one of them gave me numbness and my Onc perscribed off label Gabapentin to help with it. Prayers certainly continue for you both.
Ken is on carboplatin and gemcitabine. That's good to know I am going to ask his doctor about it. We mentioned the numbness to the oncologist and the cardiologist and they didn't say anything.
