taxotere and carboplatin
I'm on day 8 of my first Taxotere, Carboplatin, and Herceptin.
Guess I'm lucky. I had some aches and pains that were easily managed with Tylenol or ibuprofin. Reflux, upset stomach, and diarrhea are all handled by over-the-counter meds. It's the "yuck mouth" that's driving me nuts (*smile*).
