Good morning girls 😊. I was supposed to have my second Paclitaxel infusion yesterday. After driving and hour and a half to get there, I was told I needed another blood test as my liver count was not good. After waiting 2 hours and all hooked up ready to go I was told they couldn’t go ahead (devastated). Also the lady beside had a reaction to Paclitaxel 😩, it was her second infusion. The nurses responded quickly and gave her an immune suppressant and the doc was called. I overheard the whole conversation and apparently the 2nd infusion is when you are likely to get the reaction 😳. After 30 minutes they restarted her chemo and she was fine. Also this lady (like me) is having dense dose infusions. I don’t want to scare anyone (I’m in the same boat) just be reassured every thing went ok. If this happens to me, I actually will feel better knowing how quickly it was got under control. Her reactions were pain in her back….. nothing else.
I have a weeks reprieve now so it’s into the veggie patch to weed today 😊
Hope you are all doing ok.
