TAXOL COMPLETE

[Lovey1000]

I did 3 rounds of Taxol chemo for a lymph node located in my lung area that was a reoccurrence of my cancer, I did a cut 3 weeks ago and no body from my cancer center has called me so I’m thrilled cause I called my dr office and I have no follow ups scheduled so it’s obvious I’m NED but I went to have a mri on the brain for my 2 month check for Mets today I’m hoping nothing there and taxol killed anything that was lingering! I’m kinda dizzy but they say side effect from the Taxol, very strong. Taxol can make someone dizzy for how long after 3 rounds????

The onset,frequency,severity and duration of side effects of drugs can vary from person to person. For example, your side effects could be worse if you are also having other drugs which may react with Paxol. It might be an idea to ask your local pharmacist to reassess any other medications you are currently taking in case there any incompatibilities(including any over the counter medications).
