I am just wondering how many have seen a spike in blood sugar levels following Cisplatin treatment? I had not had high levels of glucose and tryglicerides until after finishing chemo. Is this common?

Hi @vikkr, I had carboplatin and taxol, almost 21 years ago, and since then my cholesterol and glucose rose steadily. None of my doctors made the connection except for one doctor I saw a few years ago who told me that chemo can raise cholesterol. I don't know about the others, but I suspect the same. I don't know how common this is, I hope others join in on the discussion. All the best! Alisa, LungCancer.net Team
