Hi. All I haven't been here for a while. I have enjoyed an 18th month remission but recent ct scan showed cancer blob pressing on my left ureter. I had a stent inserted to avoid blockage. This has wotked okay. So, started course of chemo. Number 1 went OK but the second and third I had hypersensitivity reaction to carboplatin. The 3rd was particularly nasty. The team want me to have at least the 4th infusion. I am being dosed up with steroids 2 days before chemo on Friday 20th Jan. Needless to say I am very apprehensive about it. If it happens again they will stop the carbo. Its a worry.. What will happen. Has anyone else had this problem with carboplatin.

  • Hi   I noticed you haven't had any replies yet, but I am sure someone will be along soon as several of the ladies here have undergone or are undergoing chemo.  I had radiotherapy for LVSI so cant be of any help to you with this, but I hope you can complete the course.

    Hugs, Lesley x
