The Oxaliplatin did that to me the second round with the breathing episode and they decided not to give it to me again because next time it could be anaphylaxis. Do they think you were allergic as well? Or hypersensitive? I have that as well so thats fun!

The nurses were concerned I was having an allergic reaction, my oncologist just called it a neuro response? I did read about another patient with low potassium who experience a similar reaction, so we tried boosting my potassium for subsequent rounds which seemed to help a bit
