Hi there...my name is Karen.
I was diagnosed with stage 2B and had a lobectomy on April 7 of this year. The lower third of my right lung was removed. I had two nodules (1.3 cm and 1.6 cm) in that lobe.
I am no faced with making a decision on chemo which is to start this Monday.
The combination drugs would be Cisplatin or Carboplatin along with Alimta.
Has anyone on this board been through this combination of chemo drugs? If so, I would be most interested in hearing how it went for you.
My oncologist is recommending 4 treatments spaced 3 weeks apart.
To put it mildly, I am terrified of the thought.
Thank you for any insight you may have.
