Yeah... Cisplatin doesn't play nice. I take it you're getting the 3 big bags? I got the smaller weekly doses so I dealt with the nasties from the day after for about 4 days. By the time Monday rolled around I was finally feeling better only to do it all over again. Unless your blood work drops really, really low or you start getting some nasty side effect like hearing loss or severe neuropathy, they'll keep you on it. If they have to switch to something else it would most likely be Carboplatin.

Hang in there!
