Hi everyone,
I was listed to do 12 Taxol+Carbo weekly but due to neropathy on my fingers and toes my onc switched me after 6 treatment to Taxotere+Carbo every three weeks (giving me only two more treatments!!!) starting next week. In a way I am happy to finish chemo before time, but I am a little worried about the side affects. How is Taxotere compared to Taxol? I read online about the common side effects but wanted to hear from a personal point of view? Where you able to work during it? I am a student and with Taxol I was able to come to class the next day. Is it possible with the Taxotore?
Best wishes to all,
Ralu
