Kris was not able to have the 3rd dose of Cisplatin. His White cell count was too low. We were told studies show no difference in outcome between those who got either 2 or 3 bags of Cisplatin. But that there was a survival difference if the patient only had 1.
I know that Kris hated that chemo and he has told me he will never have chemo again, ever.
