Hi @Tasia
I am sorry to hear that you are having side effects with taxol. I can hear the pain in your post, please remember we are here to provide virtual support.

I had a quite a few side effects with taxol such as rashes, skin infections, nose bleeds, diarrhoea, however most resolved a few weeks after treatment stopped. Please check with the oncologist about the increase in heart rate.
