I take Erbotux with it, and am still taking it. I had a plan of what they called a 6 pack, but only had 5 of the carboplatin
I had to miss my last dose of carboplatin due to low counts, will this effect my outcome?

I realize t his answer is very, very late ... and in it is not really an answer to your question but just advise.
In situations like this only your oncologist can give you the right answer. If they think that the 6th dose of carboplatin was absolutely necessary they may do another round with carboplatin or another chemotherapeutic agent ... to best prevent relapse.
I truly hope all is going well for you.
