I have just finished my first round of PCV Chemo. Now on a 32 dayr est period before the next round.
I have found that I have had no effects from taking the tablets, even the tiredness was less..
PCV is taken from the names of the drugs used. V is Vinscrine, which is given as a one off fluid infusion at the hospital. After this you take three lomustine cpsules as a single dose. These are also known as CCNU, hence the C. These are followed by Procarbzine capsules (The P). I was given 30 of these capsules to be taken 3 each evening for 10 days at home. I was advised to take antisickness tablets daily, which I did, which my have been why I had no ill effects.
Two more rounds of this and then a MRI scan. Hopefully we will see some effects this time.
