Taxol/Herceptin side effects?
Curious now. I'm currently on weekly Taxol/Herceptin. I had my third does last week. For the last couple of days I seem to have "random" aches (not strong to be classified as pain) all over with one persistant ache below my right ribs (opposite original cancer). They come and go. Since yesterday both of my hands are slightly swollen (looks like fluid retention). Is this due to the chemo or should I get this checked? Anybody else experience similar?
