Does anyone have experience with side effects from Jevtana )cabazitaxel) IV?

I’m starting next week and just wondering how prevalent some of the classic effects are?

Thanks!

I had two infusions of Jevtana and was told that it is much easier on the recipient than those on Taxotere. I did well on Taxotere but I've had quite a bit of nausea with Jevtana, basically making feeling fairly miserable for several days after my treatment. I am also dealing with a new SE--diarrhea. Still, it could be a whole lot worse and I sure won't complain if the stuff works. I wish you the best Are18 and I would be interested to know how the Big J works out for you.
