Hi Ladies. Due to start Carboplatin -Gemcitabine Chemo on weds if all’s well with bloods and kidney function. Any advice would be appreciated. Read about all lovely side effects ?? but interested to hear other experiences. Also my veins are knackered and have to have a portacath put in the same day I start my chemo…presume this ok but seems a lot to fit into one day ?? Xx
Hi Clarissa,
I have just come across your post from March. Not sure by now if you are still on this treatment?
I am about to start it this coming Thursday (having had a number of other chemos which have worked for a while and have then stopped working) and would appreciate any information on how you this treatment was for you?
I too have a port since beginning of this year. Not something I wanted but problems with finding a vein became an issue.
I hope your port fitting wad stress free anf that this treatment has helped you.
Regards,
Lorraine
