Do I want to get off platinum completely? I'm leaning toward the 4 weekly doses. If there is any problem with the first week, we can go from there. I had problems with the IV's the first time. Should I have a port put in, or a pic-line in my upper arm for the 4 weekly doses. Thank you all for your input.
