I had 7 carboplatin treatments. Side effects were rather minimal compared to many other treatments. I was very tired and did get some neuropathy in my feet. I am taking B6 for the neuropathy (2X/day, 100 mg.) For the tiredness, I slept a great deal. I think there is some chemo brain/brain fog as well. Important to drink a lot of water pre and post treatment
