Hi Ellie,

I had foot and toe neropathy once I started Taxol. At the end of my Taxol, it very, very slowly went away. I did not take any drugs for it. One time during Taxol, my legs really hurt and I could not walk without pain. I tolerated the cytoxin and adrymiacin much better than the 4 rounds of Taxol. 3 years after chemo, I am fine.
