Hi!
KsGal, and everyone!
I know you are furious, I understand and it's OK to get crazy at moments. I do too. Reading this makes me feel normal

I feel also good when reading this, because every time I change my therapy, I get afraid, cause I had a very, very strong allergic reaction on Taxol (anaphylactic shock), and now I am so scared of Taxotere.
So, I was off to receive my first Taxotere this morning and, it was said to me in the hospital that they were out of it. So, I was searching in the Internet, and couldn't find where to buy it on-line, because I live in Belgrade, which is in Serbia, Eastern Europe.
Does anyone knows where I can get it, to be delivered to here? I guess not, but.. I wanted to give it a try...
My regards to everyone here!
Take care!
