Paclitaxel side effects
Hi all. This is my first post. I am triple negative and have had surgery to remove lump & two lymph nodes which were clear. I've finished four rounds of AC and have had three rounds of paclitaxel wit...
I never experienced tummy problems while having treatment. I'm also triple neg. however since finishing treatment I have experienced lots of tummy problems. My oncologist ask me to take nexium whilst having treatment (for reflux) but because I didn't have reflux I didn't take it, turned out I had silent reflux and it did some damage.....now I take Nexium. I'm also on buscapan for tummy spasms. I think the treatment does damage the gut area....but remember we are all different and this may not happen to you.
With the numbness in fingers & toes. The oncologist kept a close eye on this & when my toes started to feel a bit numb she cut the dosage back slightly which helped. I finished chemo last April 2015 and the feeling is starting to return even though it wasn't too bad.
will you be requiring Radiothreapy?
Take care And remember to look after yourself.
