Hello Gail,

Spunds like things sre progressing in a normal range for his treatment. I slso had Carboplatin
& Taxol for over a year.had no side effects other than being a littlr tird someday days. Nothing a good nap wouldn't cure.
Hoping he sails through his treatment with as little side effects as possible.
Take the advice of the above postings and use the search engine to look up just about anything on oral cancer you can think of. It will have been discussed in detail in the past. if not ask on the forum and someone with similier treatment should respond.
You are now part of one huge international cyber family with one goal of educating people about the diaease and another of getting the word out "Early Detection Saves Lifes"
The road ahead will be rough at times but many of us have traveled it and survived, He can to!!!

All my best, Danny Boy
