Re: Chemo, fever question & incision - I'm tired
Vicky, my friend just had her first tx of taxotere and cytoxin (for lung cancer) and had a very bad side effect of stomach cramps. Did you find anything to resolve this problem?
I had TCH and hardly felt a thing after my FIRST tx. I did lose my hair on day 11 post 1st tx.
