It's been 21/2 yrs since I was on taxol, but am on herceptin + chemo drug now. I have arthritis in my lower back (which doesn't bother me) and hips that about killed me this winter. No response to Motrin, aspirin, etc.(which made me question whether it was all from arthritis), and a huge problem until I started a glucosamine w/ chondritin supplement. I am an equestrian, and riding frequently had me in tears! The pain is almost completely gone after 6 wks of taking it. Taxol can remain in your joints for a long time... my ring size went up on both hands from it, which seems to be permanent. Hope you get some relief!
Take care,
jackie
