Good Morning@tattrigo,
my partner had his 6 th cycle of Cisplatin/ Etoposid on Wednesday/ Thursday/Friday.
At the beginning of each cycle he starts with a medicine against nausea.
The name is Akynzeo, its very good.
The first day, the Cisplatin- day is pretty long, up to 6 hours, because of the additional NACL ( to take care of the kidneys)
He should drink a lot, thats very important
.He has side effects like a moderate Nausea, sometimes headache, muscle pain, but its tolerable.
I‘m also in the german bladder forum, there are also some small cell bladder Patients.
Two had to stop the chemotherapy, one woman said, it was like hell, but its 6 years ago
I think its very invidual.
Is his cancer local or did it spread?
Good look for your father 🙏🏼🤞🏼

Thank you. We do not know if it has spread he has not had a pet scan yet, is scheduled for that after the first chemo treatment. Thank you for sharing your partners experience. Was the chemo give an inpatient? I was told my dad will be in the hospital for five days getting the chemo
