Hi

I was due to have my first round of chemo treatment last Thursday but unfortunately suffered a severe allergic reaction to the paclitaxel and treatment had to be halted.  I am seeing my consultant on Wednesday to hopefully discuss a new treatment plan, but in the mean time, I just wonder if anyone else has suffered anything similar?  Mine was pretty bad, with my lower back going into spasm which meant I had no control over my body and found it difficult to catch my breath.  Thankfully the emergency team sorted me out quickly but it frightened the life out of me and am now very anxious about trying anything else.

If anyone has any words of comfort or advice, I'd be very grateful!

Carol
