Thanks, Dave, am a big fan of this site and finding it VERY helpful, both the info/tips and the support, so I will be a regular! Only issue so far seems to be possible ototoxicity developing from the cisplatin.

I've been told that once you begin to experience hearing issues with cisplatin, it is too late to change the damage done. Let them know immediately. Good luck

Will do. Am hoping to keep from adding further to the problem via a change to carboplatin or similar related but less ototoxic agent.
