Hi all,

Does anyone have any experience with “Red” chemo?

  • cyclophosphamide
  • doxorubicin (also known as Adriamycin)
  • vincristine

My Dad starting his first of 4 cycles for SCLC with this chemo. Heard it’s quite harsh? 

Thanks

Lucie 

  • Hi Lucie, I am sorry I have no experience of this chemo, I am going to bump your post to the top, in the hope that someone who has will see it and come and chat with you x
