Carboplatin.

Hello Oak2.  How are you feeling after your latest chemo? 

I have small cell lung cancer. I had my first round of Immunotherapy, Carboplatin and Etoposide with no problem. On my 2nd cycle I took a severe reaction where my blood pressure went through the roof! As you say it was very nasty and very frightening. I had tingling in my hand at the end of the Carboplatin and as soon as they infused the Etoposide is when I had the reaction. They cannot be sure if it was the Carboplatin or the Etoposide that had caused the problem, so I have been taken off both altogether.

I was extremely disappointed to say the least as a CT scan had showed my tumour to be shrinking.

I had my first cycle of CAV last week. So not feeling the best.

Hello Oak
