Had Taxol with Herceptine for 12 weeks then Herceptine every 3 weeks until it makes a year. (still ongoing).
It is difficult to know what came from Taxol (very toxic) and Herceptine.
I had a runny nose for the first 4 or 5 rounds then it stopped. the worst was the muscle and joint pain. Really difficult to support.
Today, I still have the severe pains all over. I must say it worsened when, on top, I started the hormonal therapy.
I need to drink because my mouth is dry. This started with the Herceptine/Taxol where I drank 4,5l liters a day. Now it is down to 2,5 liters a day. My toe nails fell off (this is Taxol) but today my nails are very fragile. My hair grows slowly.
What comes from what?
