Hi Deanne, You are worrrying me as I haven't had any Docetaxel (Taxel LD once a week for 12 weeks). I start on the taxel LD on 23th Sept for 12 weeks once a week, is it the same as Docetaxel and have you had 11 doses already? Have only had a tiny bit o swelling in hand and little fluid retention near underarm at back, but nerves and underarm pulling which starts after chemo. If its the same as I am going to start on 23rd Sept will have to get the hubby back onto the massage or I think I will lose the plot for 3 weeks. Thanks for your reply, hope all goes well for you.
