Hi Naneen,

I'm sorry to hear the difficulties you're experiencing at the moment. The best thing is probably to speak to your doctor or specialist if you can.

If you'd like to speak to one of our nurses, you can reach them on 0808 800 4040 - Monday-Friday, 9-5.

Otherwise, if anyone here has any similar experience then hopefully they'll be along soon.

Wishing you all the best,

Hello,

My mother is currently taking paclitaxel and is experiencing these side effects. Did your dosage get reduced in the end? 
 

It would be really helpful to find out it anyone has had similar side effects.

Welcome to the forum Kellyanna although I'm sorry to hear about the side effects your mother is experiencing from Paclitaxel.

Unfortunately Naneen hasn't been back on the forum in almost 2 years so you may not hear back them.

If that turns out to be the case, then you're welcome to reach out to others who are taking paclitaxel on more recent discussions you find when using the 'search forum' option in the purple bar above or by starting your own discussion.

Alternatively, if you or/and your mother would like to speak to someone about her side effects then you're welcome to give our cancer nurses a call on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

Kind regards,
