did anyone suffer from ear pain from Carboplatin?
I ve had an ear infection directly after the chemo and my ear still hurts 1,5 week after (and a bit of hearing loss). Hoping there is some experience on how long this side effect can last.

Kelly, I've just had 2 out of 6 of cisplatin and Gemcitabine and was warned of hearing loss by my MO. I know cisplatin is similar to carboplatin so I would definitely ask your MO. With cisplatin I believe the hearing loss is permanent and my mo told my DH to make sure he watches me for this.

   Hi All,     I am not sure if I have ever posted on this topic.
                 I had different chemo...FEC-D in 2009 and my hearing has been definitely affected most noticeably with television or listening to music. I have to turn the volume much higher than before.
