Bruce u Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 Finished my last round of adjuvant chemo yesterday. First 3 rounds were Cisplatin/vinerolbine. The Cisplatin was causing a hearing loss and ringing in the ears. So round 4 was changed to carboplatin/vinerolbine. I have a CT scan scheduled for April 1 to set a baseline and meet with the oncologist on April 4th. Then alternating chext x-ray and ct scan every 3 months.
