Hi everyone,
 
I have a question a little off topic.  A friend of mine has recently been diagnosed with bladder cancer and is about to start a chemo regimen of Gemzar/Cisplatin 3 cycles of 2 weeks on one week off. 
 
It seems to me that these drugs are also used for breast cancer.  Can anyone give me some feedback on the side effects and/or any helpful hints to make this easier for him?
 
Thank you,
Linda
