PS to Cheryl:

I forgot to mention that I had VERY little neuropathy. I did not take any medicine for that; the neuropathy would come on very seldomly, and they were very quick. Additionally, I did have occasional muscle/bone aches -- they would quickly come and last only several seconds or a few minutes at each time. (mostly muscle, very rarely bone.) Gratefully, I did not need to take meds for that as well.

Besides that, strangely enough I constantly had an unexplained fever while on Taxol, my onc prescribed me 600mg Ibuprofen, so that definitely worked, to kick the fever & keep it at bay. Besides that, I had occasional muscle/bone aches -- they would quickly come and last only several seconds or a few minutes at each time. (mostly muscle, very rarely bone)
