My husband is in his 7th week now. He received 2 Chemo (Cisplatin)treatments, but they have found that his red blood cell count is down and they are considering not giving him a 3rd chemo treatment because of this. Does anyone know the pros and cons to receiving 2 chemo treatments verses 3 chemo treatments? When completed he will receive 35 radiation treatments. At this point we are not sure about the surgery issue and if surgery is required. Carol...
