Hello @vika, I am sorry I didn't reply sooner. I had 6 rounds of carboplatin and taxol. It was just not too bad for me. I had bone pain that was the worst with the first treatment. I had fatigue that progressively increased with treatment but wasn't too bad. there were days I couldn't stand for more than 10 minutes, but it was all okay, I just got prepared it would get worse. i had very little nausea, mostly after the last treatment. That is usually a big side effect. I still have numbness and tingling in my fingers and toes but am hopeful for continued improvement. I didn't start chemo for about 5 weeks. I have to look. i was in a hurry but you also want to make sure the wound is healed, and that is mainly the internal vaginal cuff. I did not have deep vein thrombosis. Please feel free to ask, I would be glad to help in anyway I can. Eileen
