Doxil

[Klamato]

I have gone through 8 years of treatment for 4th stage breast cancer, but now they are suggesting I begin Doxil. Has anyone had experience with this chemo treatment?

Hello,

I have been on Doxil since April, so five doses. It wasn’t the worst treatment but I always seemed to have one week where I would have some vomiting and diarrhea so that wasn’t fun. One other frustrating thing is that the timing was weird so I never knew when it would occur.

In terms of IV chemo it was nice that I only had to show up at the clinic once a month. I was a little more tired so I carved out time to rest. I hope this is a little helpful.
