Hi Sharon,
Sorry to hear that your husband is no longer able to tolerate the Gem/Cis and I too hope that the Folfox will work for him and will keep my fingers crossed for him with that. I have no personal experiences to share about Folfox as my dad did not have chemo of any type, he wasn’t able to have it.
Have you checked out the chemo page here on the site as I know you will find some of the members who have gone through Folfox, either they have or their loved ones have.
And here are a few links for you about Folfox as well and I hope that they help.

Thank you for this info. My husband can no longer tolerate the Gemzar/Cisplatin regimemt. His Dr has recommended a second -line chemo drug – folfox. Hoping this works. His tumor markers are up . Have you heard anything specifically about this drug?
