I am sorry about how ill you feel and the problems you are experiencing. I too was very ill with A/C and Taxol. I was admitted to the hospital after my first taxol treatment as my vitals were not stable and they thought I had developed a blood infection. My feet and fingers hurt with Taxol. Actually after my first A/C treatment, I had a bad headache and couldn't sleep so I asked my oncoloigst to reduce my steriod which he did by 2/3s! That made my headache and sleep problems go away. The pain in my fingers and feet went away about three weeks after finishing Taxol. And food finally tasted OK about three weeks after finishing and I gained back seven of the twenty-two pounds I lost in sixteen weeks. I did not want my dose of Taxol decreased as I was afraid it would be less effective but I was Stage 2B with lymph node involvement and not Stage 1.
