Just had second round of Gemcidabine and Carboplatin chemo.  The side effects don't seem to be as severe as the TC at start of the year....so far so good.  Get next week off......Yipee!

Is anyone else on this combination? How are you going with it and is it effective?

Cheers, Sharon

    Hi Sharon,  Not a combo that I have had thrown at me as yet but I have indeed just finished a six round course of TC and yes it was certainly challenging..  Hoping the SE's of the GC continue to be easier to handle and that they kick your squatters butts !!!

    cheers, Sharon (aka Pink66)
