Reaction to Carboplatin

Hi All,

My mum (64) stage 4 NSCLC has just had her 3rd round of Chemo (carbo/pemetrexed)

During this 3rd round - when the Carbo was being transfused she had a reaction which made breathing very difficult for her. She ended up needing Adrenalin to calm her vital back down. She got about just less than half way through the Carbo when it happened.

Has anyone else had this?

What happens next? What impact on future treatments does it have?

Does the reaction have any impact on immunotherapy success?

She is meant to have 4 rounds with Carbo then just pemextred and Pembro moving forward.
