My mam had a few side effects but nothing bad bad if that makes sense.. he just said to her that she’s had to much.. so took her off it and put her on tomoxifan 🤷🏻‍♀️ The Taxol was working so will it still work if she was to go back on it? This whole thing confuses me just when I think I understand x

I was on weekly taxol times 3 weeks then 1 week off. It was still to much. Any longer and I would have had to take an LOA because the side affects were affecting my ability to do my job.
