Dear all, I hope everyone is managing ok during this difficult situation.
It's been a while since I posted. But to update my wife has been through chemotherapy (carboplatin and etoposide) with the aim to control her cancer as unfortunately it was not operable. But alas the following CT scan showed it had not worked and the hospital did not want to continue with anymore and pointed us to palliative care.
We decided to have a second opinion at a hospital in Portugal (where my wife comes from) called champalimaud and they have put her back on chemotherapy again. This time topotecan. She is on her 2nd cycle and following the 3rd they will scan again to check if it is helping.
I would be interested to know if anyone has had experience of topotecan and side effects this treatment caused.
Many thanks for any help
