Starting Paclitaxel...
Hi Everyone, Well I have now completed the first 4 rounds of Chemo, in two weeks time I start the 12 rounds of weekly, (Paclitaxel) and I am shit scared as I have only come to terms with the side ef...
@Schwen,
Apparently some people can be quite allergic to taxol hence the steroids and antihistamines. I only had to take it for the first two weeks as well. If you are all good with the drug then you get to go off them, Yay.
Once I finished chemo the weight I had put on dropped off fairly swiftly. Probably within the month and I didn't really do anything special. Fingers crossed for you it falls off as quickly as it came.
