Hi I was diagnosed with stage 2b ovarian cancer after debunking operation. Although all visible tumors were removed, I was advised to go on chemo therapy with combination of carboplatin and pacitaxol. After session 2 I developed a severe allergic reaction. The doctor has now recommended Cisplatin, however, as I only have 1 kidney, wondering if anyone has had Cisplatin and what the effects of the drug were on the kidney?
