Hi, I think it’s better for an older person to stay in the clinic for Cisplatin and to have a port.
My partner has no problems with his venes, but many people in the German bladder Forum told about problems without a port.
It’s VERY important to drink a lot during the Cisplatin chemo, otherwise he will have kidney problems.
Then they have to change or stop the chemotherapy.
In the hospital they are able to infund water directly in the blood ( sorry for my English 😬)
Could you maybe find out the name of the immun therapy?
I wish you the best for the therapy 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Wie geht's @samasama? How are you and your partner doing?

The immunotherapy he did was part of a clinical trial, Durvalumab and Tremelimumab. He is starting His first chemomtreatment tonight.
