well i started my chemo treatments yesterday. no problems so far. guess im lucky my treatments arent as extreme as some of you have endured. the drugs involved are taxatore and carboplatin they also give me 1 bag of saleen. had my 4th rad session today. i tell my wife im working on my tan! thats all from this end. take care and live strong!!!

Good Luck with it Tracey and don't forget I am not tooo far away, if you need me. Carol

Hu Tracey,
Taxotere and carboplatin usually don't have the nasty side effects that Cisplatin does (that's why they developed carboplatin). It's always a big step to start treatment.

Sending best wishes your way Tracey, let us know how you are doing as treatment progresses.
Take Care
