Starting Taxol soon ...
Hello ladies, I saw a post and seem to can't locate it, it was about the day by day rundown after taxol treatment. Other than that what did people feel during their 12 treatments

Hi KatherineH it was a relief for me to be on Taxol after having AC. Initially things went smoothly until towards the end of my 12 sessions. By session 8 began to experience dizziness and feeling woozy . I told the oncologist who altered dosage and added a mild sedative ...big improvement.
Was told to report symptons of neuropathy in hands and feet. By session 1O had to stop neuropathty was getting severe.
Now I have some neuropathy still but easing.
So no need to be a martyr . Many others around me did quite well.
The breast care nurse warned me towards the end I would get progressively physically and emotionally tired. I did.
Best wishes
