I too have had a lot of physical effects including neuropathy which my onc feels is from the taxol.
I had it weekly for twelve weeks and definatly noticed a depression and change of mood from about the sixth week onwards.
Thankfully the depression cleared over the months after I finished and did'nt last but just wish the physical side effects had done the same!
