Had to stop taxol
I should have responded back in June to let you know the final outcome. when the PA discussed my itching with the oncologist, she immediately stopped the taxol since it was an allergic reaction I was having. It must be pretty rare, since neither the PA nor onc nurse had heard of it, but the oncologist had. So, I had three out of four taxol treatments and now am on herceptin.
Was recently diagnosed with cardiomyopathy, so I'm going through lots of tests to see if its the Adriamycin and/or herceptin.
