anyone having weekly taxotere and heparin?

hi all,

i’m about to start my weekly course of taxotere and heparin and wondered if anyone else has had/is having it weekly…and how you’ve found it.

i’ve coped with the FEC so far but seem to be extremely worried about swapping to tax! not exactly sure why…i guess its just more of the unknown into which i seem to keep stepping…

i’d love to know if anyone else is going through this treatment weekly and how you’ve found it…? i have other chronic illnesses and the weekly treatment is supposed to make it more tolerable for poorly peeps i’m told!!

hugs, whiffy

hi wiffy

i’m going to have weekly tax too but haven’t started yet so can’t help out. i had 3rd FEC a week ago, one more then switch to tax at the end of Jan. i’ve seen a few people post about here but i’ve not really got much info. let’s hope someone will see your post.

i’m not on heparin tho.

Do you mean heparin (a blood thinner that is sometimes used with picc or hickman lines or portacaths ) or Herceptin for HER2+ tumours?
