Stage IV CRC as well. Agreed, for the vast majority, it is still cytotoxic chemotherapy. I used to follow these innovations hoping to bring it up with my onc, but rarely do any of them work better than standard of care in vivo. I hope you're handling maintenance chemo okay. Tumor DNA can change over time, so get a biopsy at some point to see if you qualify for other treatments. |

Great point about tumor dna. It does change and the “usual” treatments become less effective. That’s when the experimental drugs are usually brought in to the treatment plan.
I am living a pretty normal life for 4 of 7 days. And honestly I’m grateful it’s only 3 days that I’m less productive or just kind of tired/ spaced out.
Another PSA- start your start up before health gets in the way. Health really is wealth and having time with energy and a clear mind is in shorter supply once health issues arise. But also balance work and life. Ok no more PSAs today :)
