Hi Steve,

I had 6 weekly infusions of Cisplatin. It definitely kicked my butt but the side effects were manageable with drugs. I was fortunate that I didn't suffer many of the listed side effects. Long term, I have neuropthy in my toes. Get a baseline hearing test prior to starting and make sure you report any hearing issues immediately. Tinnitus is a possibility.

Positive thoughts and prayers
