My husband has completed 3 rounds of chemo with Cisplatin, Taxotere, and 5-FU. On Monday he begins radiation (5 days per week for 7 weeks) along with Carboplatin. Does anyone have any experience or tips on this treatment? I'm really starting to get nervous about it because of the side effects that go along with it.
