What is my husbands chance of a cure?
Related Topics
My husband is 56 year old, in march 2013 had colon cancer surgery, adenocarcinoma, T3 N1a ACPS-C , now he's back to good health & his previous weight, physically active, no family history of cancer, no other health problem. Will start chemotherapy next week fluorouracil & oxaliplatin twice per month, during half year. What is his chance to cure? What is prognosis? Is this the right treatment? -
