My daughter gets frustrated with me. Am I wrong?
I had an anaphylaxic reaction with
Taxol
2 drops into my first session and had to switch to Gemzar with carboplatin. Now I mentioned session 6 , and she said she wishes she hadn't told me. She is frustrated. Am I wrong to be having these concerns?

Daily routines
Take much longer now - morning, noon and night - to deal with all the ongoing issues related to chemo symptoms after 18 week
taxol
treatment finished a month ago... 🙄 I thought it might be helpful to post what they are.

Making sense of scan results
I had a good feeling that my 18 weeks of
taxol
treatment had done its work and the scan result from last week has confirmed that with much relief.

Monitoring
I’m post chemo Carbo/
Taxol
which I finished end of August. My CT showed no residual disease in September. I’m not sure if there is a standard protocol for continued monitoring but feeling anxious that I know nothing of how my disease could be progressing.

Eutroc Pissaro Trial
My Cancer journey really began around 3 years ago but until now I have not suffered any symptoms apart from the usual ones from carbo/
Taxol
treatment. The ascites has made me feel quite unwell, unable to sleep and very anxious.

Relieved
I spoke to a dermatologist who told me 2% of women who have
Taxol
(or derivatives of) don’t get their hair back for ages or in lesser cases never.

Word in the street - which could be better for low grade Caelyx or weekly taxol
My question, if I get the control arm, do I go for: weekly
taxol
- I only got a slight response with
taxol
/ carbo and recurred within e-6 months after finishing treatment. But this will be weekly so maybe I get a different effect.

Life in hospital over Christmas
If any of you remember I started the OCTOPUS trial in September which includes weekly
Taxol
plus trial drug in tablet form. I was excited and full of expectation to be doing something positive.

Possibly back, but relieved for now
It seems uncommon compared to using Carbo/Caelyx or Carbo/
Taxol
. Thanks, Michael

Recurrence
Carbo/
taxol
as first time around. I would like to get some more advice but it all takes time and I am anxious for the chemo to go ahead asap. Does a week or so make much difference. Also will the fluid go away if the chemo is successful ?

Wee 1 trial anyone?
The objective is to determine if this drug (pill) in combo with carbo OR
taxol
has improved effectiveness on either of these drugs among those who are platinum resistant. I am, reoccurrence a very short few months following first line. I am working to get into the arm of
Taxol
plus this pill.

Horrible carbo reaction.
On Thursday I had my third cycle/ second line of
taxol
and carbo. All was fine till the carbo went in. After ten minutes or so I felt awful. Very light headed, I was violently sick, boiling hot then freezing cold. My eyes swelled up and my blood pressure dropped.

Concurrent chemo (carboplatin and taxol). Stage 3b nsclc
Anyone willing to share their experiences with concurrent chemo and radiation for nsclc? Hubby has some mediastinal(sp) lymph’s involved. Dr scared the car out of me when he said”if you survive this treatment....” I need to know success stories and reality for what to expect, please.
