Mayo had me do a pre and post hearing test due to the effects of cisplatin. I have heard of another type of chemo drug other than cisplatin that doesn’t have that side effect, but not sure of the name. My experience at Mayo was great as they provided many different resource to help someone through the treatment. But the biggest is yourself. Go in knowing you’re going to have to fight, keep a positive attitude and measure success by small improvements.

Thanks! Locked into Cisplatin at this point. Tomorrow is first day. The only question is how many weeks of it will they encourage me to endure.
