Query side effects of weekly chemo
My Mum has been receiving three weekly chemo cycles. She is half way through. After 4 of these cycles she will be going to weekly chemo for 3 months. She is anxious that the weekly chemo will leave ...
I started with F.E.C 2 doses only, they were 3 weeks apart, that is where I lost my hair in the 1st dose. The Oncologist changed me to Pacletaxol which is weekly for 12 weeks but I only had 3 doses and although the side effects were a lot less and different to the FEC, I still hated it. But that is not saying mum will be that way... there are a lot of side effects with Pacletaxal but they seem to happen after treatment... I wish her all the best
