|  David, how dismaying to think it could have been avoided!  I am having intermittent ringing already.  I had some low-level tinnitus at baseline so it's a matter of degrees.  I see my MO Monday and will discuss it.  I don't think he sees Cisplatin and Carboplatin as equally proven.   If your MO did, why do you think he didn't put you on Carbo in the first place?
