Endometrial cancer mets to the lungs

 I like to know if anyone has had Chemo treatment of paclitaxel and carboplatin for this cancer? My oncologist recommended it but I am afraid of the enormous sideeffects.and not so much of benefits either . Only a maybe 30% chance of any response.

I like to talk to someone who has undergone that treatment and her reaction to this treatment,before I make a decision
