Because Taxol will be administered weekly, I'm getting a lower dose compared to Taxotere, and my doctor said I should experience milder side effects. I haven't had to take Zofran at home at all. No diarrhea. No fatigue. I felt a few tiny instances of nerve pain yesterday but didn't have to take gabapentin. While I haven't felt like I have heartburn, I'm avoiding foods that can trigger it.
That doesn't mean my other side effects have gone away. My skin is extremely dry. I keep seeing flakes of skin on my clothes. Food doesn't taste the same. It's not horrible but not great either. I've lost of a lot of muscle and am doing a poor job of eating more protein.
My next chemo is tomorrow. I started fasting again today.
