Caelyx strikes again
I had my 3rd Caelyx/
carboplatin
on the 19th. Felt awful as expected for a few days and then started to feel a bit better. On the evening of day 8 I had stomach cramps so took myself off to bed.

Trials
You find out which group you have been put in once signed up. 2 trial groups involve taking Bevacizumab along with
carboplatin
and paclitaxel and one group does not have bevacizumab involved. Could anyone tell me if they have heard of these type of trials.

Letrozole not working ... back to chemo
Now it's back to
carboplatin
initially as a single agent for 3 cycles with the hope that this will reduce the size and prevent looming bowel blockages. On the bright side I'm feeling well, no symptoms, and looking forward to seeing the lovely nurses in the treatment room!

Taxol/Avastin side effects?
I never had this with
Carboplatin
/Taxol. I also feel like my lips are tingly. Have any of you had these effects and what did you do for the blisters? The port is working well! Thanks, Kim

Taxotere Nanoparticle Trial
I will probably recommend a course of some combination of Docetaxel (I was already taking it in nano form), Cabazitaxel, and
Carboplatin
. I am deliberately not going to Zytiga or Xtandi, since those would make me ineligible for MDA's DYNAMO trial.

Chemo mid review ?
So far all my bloods have been ok and have improved from initial first
carboplatin
. My chemo is adjuvant due to 1A serous cell and being NED after surgery . Has anyone else had only 4 treatments if CA levels have been really low ? Treatment number 3 my count was 15 I'm really confused ???

Cisplatin versus Carboplatin
I know it is not possible to generalise on side effects but does anyone have any advise/experience on switching from Cisplatin to
Carboplatin
for these reasons or on numbness caused by
Carboplatin
?

CA125 rising
My CA125 was over 9000 at that point and rose to over 11000 as I started chemo (weekly paclitaxel and 3 weekly avastin and
carboplatin
). I had surgery in January 2017 and have had 7 weeks more chemo since.

Opdivo
After his chemo cycle he also had triple dose of each Taxol and
Carboplatin
twice in August. He really trust his oncologist but I feel as they are giving up. Thanks

Bad Side Effects from Chemo
Hi Ya'll, My dad just turned 89 and started his Chemo treatment of
Carboplatin
& Alimta in January, every 3 weeks, for NSCLC. He just had his 3rd treatment this past Monday; the Dr. did lower this dose because of the side effects.

Skin feels bruised 5 days after first cycle of Carboplatin
Hi. I had my first cycle of Carboplatim 5 days ago. I've felt dreadful ever since - mainly nausea. I've had my anti sickness med changed now and although it's making me drowsy, it seems to be doing the trick. I'm now feeling like my skin is really bruised - mainly round my glands in my neck, shoulders

Still on the chemo once a week
He's been on chemo one day a week (
carboplatin
) and has experienced severe diarrhea. It has really bothered him and fears to eat food, which has caused him to lose a little weight. His doctor has had him take Imodium and a prescription strength diarrhea medication.
