I had cisplatin/taxotere/5FU together/ That was very tough. I later had carbo weekly with radiation. My MO said based on my response to the TPF, I would have no trouble with the carbo. He was right - Did not feel it at all! Carbo is easier than cisplatin. There is a good chance she can cope better. They also can adjust the dose to some amount. Good luck. Don
