Hi. I'm a survivor of Taxol/Cytoxin. My last treatment was 13.5 months ago. I still have a lot of swelling/edema. My hands, leg, feet, arms, face and neck. It does not matter what I eat or drink I still swell. I have gained 15 pounds in the last 3 months. I have been taking a potassium sparing diuretic and it isn't helping Does anyone else have this happening? If so, what are you doing for it?
Thanks!

My last chemo of IP/IV Taxol and Cistplastin (USA) was July 2015. Yes, I still have swelling. Compression shorts and pants like the athletes wear was recommended to me by my physical therapist. Just don't wear them when you sleep.
