Paraplatin (carboplatin) "Although I developed serious reactions to this medicine, it was best medicine to use with Gemzar over my initial diagnosis and secondary recurrence. On my third recurrence (ten years later) I again had a reaction butmnot until my CA-125 went below 1,000!"

"I have stage 4B ovarian cancer and they gave me carboplatin + Abraxane after an allergic reaction to Paclitaxel. I had most of the listed side effects but none of them were severe, including the neuropathy. I had one day after my infusion where I felt poorly but the rest of the time I was managing life. Fatigue was most common. My cancer 125 antigen went from 3,000 to 124 with this medicine and I am thankful my oncologist managed my care with carboplatin + Abraxane. I am not in remission but doing very well at this time."

Paraplatin (carboplatin) "Took it first line with Taxol. No evidence of disease for 3 years. Now recurrence, taking with Gemzar, so good to hear your no recurrence for 10 years."
