belly bloating on taxotere?
 
Has anyone experienced? My wife Caryn looks like she's preganant when she lets her belly out and it's not normal for her. She's been on taxotere for about 6 weeks now and she brought it to my attention last week. She'll call the doc tomorrow. I'm a bit confused since it doesn't seem to feel like fluid buildup for her and thankfully her tm's have come down since starting.

Thanks in advance,
Eric

Is she taking decadron as pre-meds? That could cause it.

I can relate. The decadron and the taxotere, according to my doctor, both cause the abdomen to swell. It is happening again to me on Abraxane and I am guessing, because I am on the decadron again. My doctor says I seem to be extremely sensitive to the steriods.
