PPC 2nd surgery go around with HIPEC treatment
I received
Carboplatin
and Taxol chemo intravenous infusion. This caused a lot of damaged to my sensors: tingeling sensations, numbness, loss limb control, hair loss, etc... This time I feel a lot better and no hair loss.

👽Return of the Alien 👽
In 2016 it reappeared in my peri aortic lymph nodes and I was treated with
Carboplatin
. Then in early Dec 2017 it reappeared in the guise of Lobular Breast Cancer . I had a mastectomy followed by 24 sessions of Radiotherapy . I was then prescribed hormone blockers Arimidex to prevent its return .

Infiltrating Poorly Differentiated Ductal Carcinoma. Stage 3C w/marked Lymphocytic Response/Triple Negative
Followed by 12 weeks of Taxol &
Carboplatin
. I will have my new prognosis on Aug 3rd & schedule surgery to have a partial mastectomy and all of my lymph nodes removed on the affected side. Followed by 35 rounds of radiation everyday (exc w'ends) It's all been do-able.

Devastated with scan results
Apparently the ureter is being squashed causing a back up so it was a choice of
carboplatin
on its own or with gemcitabine. I have gone for the single agent as gem can be a bit harsh on liver and kidneys but as this is third line I don’t know whether I am going to respond to the platinum or not.

The Importance Of Regular Scans
So he was changed to
Carboplatin
. The PSA had risen to 129. But that doesn't matter anymore when the cancer has changed. First
Carboplatin
infusion at the end of September. He had six infusions. A scan done at the end of the sixth infusion showed a modest reduction in tumors.

More natural options
I had surgery and 12 rounds chemotherapy of gemzar and
carboplatin
. Mom had pacxitaxel, which my body would not tolerate. Moms came back in 9 years. Mine came back in 9 months. I developed an autoimmune condition and stomach digestion issues as a result.

Anyone out there with SCLC that's metastasized to their liver being treated with cisplatin and carboplatin? If so, have you had any success?
My brother was diagnosed about a month ago and this is his course of treatment. He also has high blood pressure and Diabetes (weighs @165). He's 55 and has smoked cigarettes for probably over 35 years. I hope he has a good doctor. But, he and our family are realists too. Our mother passed from this

Did my first set of chemo gemzar
carboplatin
and can’t remember the third one (chemo brain). Oh and Avastin. Series complete in November 17. Kept taking Avastin so I’ve been on that for over a year. CA 125 went from a high of 75 to a low of 9.

Carcinoembryonic Antigen
My first chemo was
carboplatin
/alimta which i did great! My ICMA (the long name in the title) which i understood to be a tumor "marker" dropped from around 60 to the 20s, which excited me.

Carboplatin Hypersensitivity
I read that replacing
Carboplatin
with a different platinum compound is one of the recommended options. Has anyone experienced similar symptoms during
Carboplatin
infusion and do you have any tips/suggestions? Thank you so much in advance. M

Husband trying to be supportive
Suzanne was diagnosed stage 3 in March 2013 and has had two recurrences, so three goes at the dreaded taxol/
carboplatin
cocktail. But hey it has worked! Last time round they had to go light on the
carboplatin
as Suzanne developed an allergic reaction.

Omentum and surgery
She had 3 rounds of
carboplatin
/ taxol and underwent surgey recently. When they did the surgey they found the omentum couldn’t be removed as the cancer had spread between the omentum and attached to the stomach, small intestine and diaphragm.
