Re: Terrible time with Taxotere??
I had Taxol. I remember having leg pain so bad for a day or two that I would swear I could not possibly go through it again. But, of course, it eased up and I went back for another round. We stopped after 4 rounds because I was getting some neuropathy.
As others have said, moving is probably a good thing even if not very far. I had a neighbor that would come for dog walking every day. I dragged myself a few doors up the street. It as all I could do, but I think it helped. Poor dog, having to turn around!
