Taxotere is the toughest ! but hopefully you only have 3 left now after your post,
I had a roster as i was knocked off my feet for 5 days each session and needed some help to get dinner etc and basically laid on the couch for most of 3 months as seems to affect your blood irons levels - so no energy at all.
So hang in there, get some good dvd TV series to watch - I had Entourage - great show ! was my little highlight during the really crap times.
I could also feel the taxotere during the first week, all around my chest, as it works through the lymph/circulation system, its weird, thrush too, and the strangest finger nails, pink, brown and white then have extra 4 white stripes across each nail, but at least they didnt split and break :)
take care with food as not sure what happened to me but ended up with gastro twice, its was probably the drug towards the end, make sure you have Immodium? & gastrolyte handy in the cupboard just in case. remember one day at a time, and its ok to have crap days on taxotere
because its there to help you/all of us in the long run !
take care xox, Bardoe
