For just having a round of Chemo, Newton is doing very well. His stool is a bit soft, but that is the only side effect that we have seen so far. Dr. Perry prescribed Tylosin (1/2 teaspoon by mouth three times daily) for the diarrhea and Maropitant (1/2 tablet by mouth every 24 hours) for upset stomach.

So far (knock on wood), he is doing great. The area when there injected the Carboplatin looks good and he seems to be in fabulous spirits. He even played with one of his stuffed animals today. I just couldn't be happier!
