    hi group,

    I started chemo right after Christmas and I’m still going. I had 4 AC treatments and then was planning on 4 T treatments but my liver had other plans. I was moved to the weekly protocol and now I have 4 more to go. Anyone else experience liver elevations on Taxol

    Mama2 - my first Taxol my liver was elevated. Due to headaches my doctor reduced the Dexamethasone in half and the remainder of my infusions my liver enzymes were fine.

    I'm 3 weeks out since my last chemo and still am having some breathing issues due to irritation from the Taxol. Watery eyes might be finally calming some but fatigue is still real.

    So, after unsuccessful cold capping and 2 months of scraggly , sparse hairs and lots of short hair, today I said f*ck cancer, f*ck wigs and f*ck hats and did this. It feels so much better!!image
