Yep, I tried it, Sabrina, and it is not nearly as much fun for me as it is for you mad . (I feel like a new Budhist monk trying to reach nirvana!) Maybe you could give us all a few lessons in Las Vegas. eek

What Chuck is explaining could very well be the culprit. I get it real bad when I am walking and especially down stairs. Stupid me, though, because I always try it as I am walking down stairs and sometimes it almost makes me dizzy. My medical oncologist insists it was from the radiation and the radiation oncologist insists it is from the Cisplatin. I found a data sheet on Cisplatin that lists it as a potential side-effect. Vitamin B-12 has been recommended to lessen the effects.
