Has anyone had pain in the tailbone or siatic area of the butt while on Taxol/Herceptin? I can't seem to get rid of the pain. It is worse the week after the Taxol (I am on weekly Herceptin and bi-weekly Taxol since Feb). I have been going to the chiropractor at least once a week and it helps a little and my regular doctor did an x-ray and nothing is broken. Just wondering if this is normal. My onc plans on doing another PET Scan, CT Scan and Bone Scan the first part of October, but I am wondering if I should ask for it sooner.

Thanks in advance.
