Hello

  • Hi everyone out there where ever you are, I had my first cycle of Taxotere on the 17th (12 days ago) after 3 cycles of FEC.
  • I think they lied!!!! they told me that the taxotere wasn't as bad as the FEC I am finding the side effects are many more, last longer and more severe but maybe my body isn't as tolerant as it was to start with. Did anyone else find this?
  • Does anyone have a remedy for the awful taste in the mouth, it is still there after 12 days (FEC didn't last half as long as this and was metallic not this awful taste) , I clean my teeth about every couple of hours and tried eating lollies but nothing seems to help.
  • Oh boy! nails I must be the worlds worst polish putter onner there is, I seem to get it every where and smudge it every time, I try really hard to sit still until it dries but it is never long enough. Tried having it done $25 later ...... it chipped the next day and by day 3 had to take it off, expensive lesson, I might ask around I think I must have been ripped off by these people and there should be others that can do it so it lasts longer.
  • Interested to hear if anyone else has had the same experience with ....taxotere.......taste...........nails.
  • Cheerio for now,
  • Jacqui
