Re: bloody nose

You can use plain saline as often as you like. I didn't have a particular schedule, but the least little nose irritation found me reaching for the bottle. Sometimes, I would just soak a couple of cotton balls in saline and stuff them in my nostrils. Not pretty, but it felt pretty good.

I figured you were having TCH instead of ACTH (which is what I had), but taxanes in any form are evil to the nose (and in my case, at least, to the gums--mine bled a lot).
