Terrible time with Taxotere??

[undecided8]

Thanks SO much everyone for all your support and advice on this taxotere issue. Dr. will NOT let me change my regimen to q week versus q3 wks. I think I've dealt with about every s/e that a chemo drug can offer. The pain is MUCH better now thank God! And the fatigue is finally lifting. Yesterday the diarrhea sat in. GEEESH! White count is down but Dr. said it's not enough to worry just yet. He's making me see him weekly now. He's starting me on Zometa with the next infusion and said that sometimes Zometa can cause flu-like symptoms? That's just great! I've also developed in the last 2 days what they call "radiation recall". Go figure! I guess I had such an easy time with taxol/herceptin I didn't realize how easy I had it with that regimen, cause this one is definitely kicking my butt! Thanks again EVERYONE! Hope everyone is hanging in there and doing ok.
