Everyone,
Hope this post finds you all well and happy.
I am wondering how long you stayed on Taxol, on an indefinite basis? My oncologist has had survivors on for years and years. I'm doing well, currently NED, but have to continue treatment as my doctor believes
evidence-based medicine indicates a stronger cancer could occur should I stop (right now). I achieved NED status after six months of treatment, and I'm doing well, but am starting to feel tired.
Thanks,
Karen
