Any chemo drug will likely give a side effect... I think that many of us going through (or having been through) chemo are much more aware of our bodies and somewhat hypersensitized to anything that may not be normal. I blamed my chemo for anything that was not there before cancer...Thats not to say that your symptoms are not worrisome. Just that the UTI was already going to happen anyway and maybe the Taxol just exacerbated it. Your body defenses are low during chemo. Call the chemo nurse and see if you get a response in the right direction and if not check with your GYN...
With everything you are going through, a UTI is certainly the last thing on your wish list...
I probably did not answer your question, but I would not halt the benefits of the Taxol if I could help it !
