Docetaxel pain

Hi everyone.   I had my first round of Docetaxel on Tue 8th Nov.  By Friday 11th I was aching all over and just hit me anywhere and everywhere, all I had at home was Panamax.    The pain was bad for at least two days but I managed.  Then by Wednesday 16th I wasn't feeling well, runny nose and achy, Thursday woke up with a temp of 38C and went to my local bush hospital.   As I live on the east coast of Tassie, 200km by road to Launceston I was flown out by Plane and have spent the last 6 day in hospital for Neutropenia with flu type symptoms.   My Neutraphils were zero.   Because of the flu type symptoms I was in isolation. a room of my own and the door closed. Everyone, had to have gloves, masks and gown before coming into my room.  Anyone who didn't gown up -  I told off, that included the Oncologist for the ward.    Got home today.  Not everyone gets this, but just make sure you look after yourself Day 7 - Day 14.   Its the worst for us and as they kept telling me wash, wash wash your hands, no hugging anyone or kisses  and stay away from crowd etc.  I will be getting a booster injection for my bone marrow with my next chemo (The govt will only give you this injection  once you have been diagnosed with neutropenia - as the cost of this injection I was told was $10,000.).  Then I was informed the the injection can also give you a side effect of making your long bones  (in you legs and arms ) ache.  So I guess you just have to look after yourself for the 3 Docetaxels.    Christina x
