Hi Ann and Louisa
Happy Mothers Day Ladies. Wishing you a beautiful day.
I have just been laying there thinking and thought I would pass on to you something that is going through my mind right now.
I have read numerous blogs where the ladies say take Panadol from the onset of having your Taxotere and that should help keep you pain under control. I have tried that and feel that there is no way that Panadol even touches the sides of my pain. I have pain through every bone in my body, and I mean every bone. Currently it is day 5 and it started day 3 and has worsened as it has gone. I just want you to know that if Panadol doesn't cut it for you that is okay. I have been told many times by Medical staff that I have a very high tolerance to pain but I am struggling with this pain. Because it is so wide spread I am unable to control it with heat packs etc.
You may be a lot luckier than me and not have an much pain but if you do it is okay to take something stronger than Panadol is what I am trying to tell you.
I just feel I need to let you know that if you need to take something stronger to keep your pain under control like I am that it is okay and you are not to feel guilty. I am a tough nut but I am struggling with this pain unfortunately.
Just wanted to get that out there for you.
