I have been following this thread from the beginning.
I wasn't given a choice, mine is carbo regimen (palliative) but a week ago, I had
'ringing/throbbing' in my left ear.

I looked up side effects of carb and nowhere was it mentioned, although I had read about hearing problems being a side-effect of cisplatin on this site.

Fortunately, the 'symptoms' now seem to have subsided, but I still don't feel I hear as well as I did.

I also had an eye-exam today as my eyesight has definitely deteriotated--both my long and short vision. I currently have tests every 4 months anyway and RX has stayed the same for a good number of years, so am wondering if this change is a result of the cancer, chemo, or just 'natural progression due to age (58)' Any thoughts anyone??
