nail pronlems -- taxol

Hi everyone,
I've read the posts on this board for several months since being dx (Aug 2003). I've learned so much and thanks.

I've been on weekly Taxol/Herceptin. Have been getting good results, not too many side effects.

I have, lately been having a real hard time with my nails. They are slightly discolored and my thumb nails and a few toenails are actually swollen.

Is this a side effect of Taxol? Does anyone have any experience with nail problems that they could share?

Thanks in advance,
