Hello! Firstly, congrats on finishing your treatment. And, welcome to the world of docetaxel. I finished my chemo 18 months ago. My hands and feet suffered also.

I have forgotten what it's like to not have sore feet. BUT.....I am here and that is all that matters. I am also TN. Do you belong to the Triple Negative group on here? With love Paula xx
