now platinum, platinum is beginning to be used in all sorts of cancer therapies, but that’s another story!! I did chemotherapy in 1989 and the treatment was with a platinum compound.
Nasty stuff. But it worked...
I had carboplatin and taxol - I believe the carboplatin was platinum based. But I found that your body will accept only so much of the platinum. My second bout with lung cancer, they used the carboplatin and I had an extreme anaphylactic (I think) reaction. My nurse daughter tells me that once you reach the saturation point, you can never take it again.
