hey ladies, i'm starting taxol in 2 weeks time, and ive been hearing some horror stories about it. Please share your experiences on it, im planning on working during this treatment. Thanx in...
Whilst better than my other chemo I wasn't great on taxol but was also on herceptin. My main issues was fluid retention...but this was more likely the steroids they think as I needed a higher dose because of allergies. I didn't have nausea on it and wasn't bed bound like AC. I just had aches and pain day 3..so if working and can have on a Thursday...it might be all over by the Monday if it effects you. I know of 2 women who worked throughout it. I could not, but we are all different.
