Thanks so much for thinking of me. It does help me feel less alone.

My third round of chemo, using the carboplatin desensitization protocol went fine. Instead of infusing it in 30 min, they took 5 hours. So after the blood tests, pre-medication and 3 hours of paclitaxel, I was there almost 12 hr. But no problems, so I'm grateful that I can keep taking it.

That is a long day for sure, but so happy for you that you were able to receive your treatment with no trip to the ER! I'm praying that all of your future treatments go well too! Stay strong!❤️

That’s a very long day. I hope you are feeling OK today and that the long infusion will be the procedure going forward.
