I’m finally starting chemotherapy again! This time it’s topotecan. Infusions for days 1,2 and 3 and then 18 days break; repeat! I start on 4th March, and hopefully finish by 19th June. I’ve not had this drug before, so don’t know what to expect except for all the side effects listed on the internet. Wait and see!

@jenelleseaman I haven't had chemotherapy however I'm familiar with many of the options from what we all share here on Connect. Topotecan is a new one for me.

I did a search on Connect and found a few mentions. Here is a good explanation by one of our Alumni Mentors.

Here on Connect topotecan is mentioned for small cell lung cancer:

Yes, I suppose it's wait and see! Hoping someone else will jump in with their experiences.
