Carboplatin without Taxol - ??

Question: Does anyone know the potential impact of dropping Taxol from a Carbo/Taxol treatment?  My mom has had such a bad reaction that they have pulled the Taxol from her treatment. 

Stage 1C Clear Cell Ovarian Cancer.  She had 2 treatments of Carbo/Taxol (doc was only going to send her for 4 rounds, so she was 50% of the way there).

Thanks in advance for the input.

Hi There.

There is no impact of droping Taxol if you had reaction.Staying on it would have negative impact on your body and bonemarrow.

I was on Carboplatin only for 6 rounds and after 3   did not do anything anymore that it supposed to do. My numbers went down and really I was not sick like with Taxol and Carboplatin together.
