Hi, blc6571, just wanted to chime in and tell you that my hubby had carbo\taxol too and thanks to good anti nausea drugs, had no issues with that part. He did lose his hair, but it has now come back thicker [and less gray] than before. Radiation will be tough and he will need your support and attention. There is lots of good caregiving info here, and those of us on that side of the fence will talk to you anytime you need us to. By the way, my daughter is an RN-working at Methodist in Indy- she has held my hand for two years. If you need a hug, let me know and I will send her to you. She used to live in Lafayette, but now resides in Franklin. [She loves to "have lunch" on her days off.] Good luck going forward. Amy in the Ozarks
