Taxol 13

Wrapped up #12 series of Taxol 8/6/09 and have a "bye" next Thursday. Dr. Im is still deciding whether or not to continue Taxol #13 when I go back for chemo 8/20/09. Since Taxol is holding the 3 nodes static, changing to another chemo doesn't seem necessary. Don't know what a new drug might have in the way of side effects and don't know if it would even work. So think it will be a wait-and-see situation. Main side effect for Taxol is the neuropathy with my fingers and feet. Feet are more dangerous as I don't want to fall and possibly hurt/break something. So I'm careful when walking and/or going up/down stairs.
