Docetaxel Chemo

Hi, my husband has got to have a different Chemoradiotherapy ( Docetaxel ) he’s been told the tumour in his Tonsil has grown by 2cm, also the cancer is still in his Lymph  Nodes, he’s had 4 lots of Carboplatin but obviously it’s not worked, has any one been through the same, just need some reassurance & fingers crossed something good comes out of the different Chemo.

  • Hello cas27,

    I hope you won't mind but I have added the word 'Docetaxel' to the title of your post. This will help our members spot immediately from looking at the title of your message from the homepage that you are asking about Docetaxel therefore increasing your chances of getting a relevant reply. I hope you will get to chat to others who are going through the same as your husband.

    You might also be interested in reading our information page on Docetaxel .

    I am sorry to hear Carboplatin didn't work on your husband and I hope that you will have better results with Docetaxel. Do keep us updated if you can on your husband's progress and on how he is doing under this specific chemotherapy regime.

    Best wishes,
