- Originally thought that the experience summarized during 9 chemotherapy sessions for cancer was already quite comprehensive
- Never expected that during the 10th chemotherapy session, there would be a platinum allergy, specifically carboplatin allergy
- The worries did not come true
- Worries about when carboplatin will develop resistance
- Carboplatin resistance usually means possible cross-resistance with other platinum drugs
- This means that platinum-based chemotherapy can no longer be used
- Only targeted drugs, immunotherapy, etc., can be used for maintenance
- Unexpectedly appeared
- Carboplatin allergy during the 10th chemotherapy session
- Allergy means that platinum drugs are still effective
- Research has found that carboplatin allergy often occurs between the 6th and 21st chemotherapy sessions
- Professor Markman and others found that about 27% of patients will have an allergy after the 7th carboplatin chemotherapy session
- So now I can understand that the appearance of an allergy is just a matter of time
- Allergy is still better than resistance
- Consider switching to other platinum drugs such as oxaliplatin next time
- Persistence is victory
- I hope for some relief in bone marrow suppression
- I hope to endure a few more cycles of chemotherapy
- I hope to see signs of improvement or even cure in CT images and tumor markers
- Everything is hope, having hope is always better than having none
