Hello everyone, I just finished 4 times AC and started the Taxol + Carbo.

I have been feeling pains at my kidney? Has anyone experience this or heard about similar experiences?

Thank you a lot! Appreciate your time.

Dear applecathy,

It seems you are not alone according to this Canadian study.

I would suggest going back to your Breast Medical Oncologist and see if he can recommend testing or refer you to oncologist who is familiar with kidney issues.

Having previous kidney issues as will as diabetes seem to be issues.

with my love to all here,

Steve
