Hi there.

So brother was admitted last night. At his first round (three weeks ago) the regimen was 1 bag of Taxotere, 4 bags Cisplatin and 4 bags 5Fu. The taxotere stuff scares me because they also bring in an "emergency" kit in case you have an allergic reaction.

I had my sis-in-law promise to call as soon as he finished with the taxotere because I was worried about it. He called a while ago to say that they're not gonna give him the Taxotere until they've checked his heart first, his calcium level is high. They will begin the cisplatin and 5FU today though.

Is this bad? Should they follow the same regimen each time?
I realize I sound like a worry wart.......
