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.
