Unhappy

What do you mean by becoming toxic on Taxol?

Navelbine has been VERY easy, but honestly Taxol was as well for me when I orginally took it in the beginning. Gemzar was the Beast for me. Oh it was horrible, and the tyker/xeloda for the 6 days I was on it. I dreaded swallowing the pills because of the pain it caused in my back??? The pain was so awful with those drugs!! I would have to eat and eat popsicles while on Gemzar on the day of infusion. NEVER again!

I love those twins. They are so amazing!!!
