Hmmm, @Sirrah.
It becomes a problem when someone get's side effects that are not on "the list". I was told my brain reaction to Tamoxifen was extreme and rare. It took me less than 5 mins on google to find that no, it was not all that rare and there were ample people out there with the same problem and studies being done on it. But not in AUS.
If it's not from the chemo or steroids it's a wierd freeky coincidence that it began straight after it. Have you checked with the oncology department
pharmacist?
Second opinion from another oncologist maybe????? I get the feeling they don't think we really know our own bodies at times. Sometimes you just have to make some noise until someone listens to you.
On a good note. I found the Paclitaxel a walk in the park (well almost) compared to AC.
