Chemo Treatment Cut Short?
Has anyone had their chemo treatment cut short due to neuropathy? Would be interested in your stories. Thank you!
I stopped Taxol after 8 treatments out of 12 because of neuropathy. My surgeon and oncologist both were ok with my stopping. I knew I didn’t want neuropathy as it can last a life time.
I had 11 of 12 Taxol infusions. 12th cancelled due to tachycardia. Onco said, "no more poison for you." I take B-6 d as lily because it helps with occasional swelling in breast.
Definitely ask your doc first - but it’s been helpful for me / hope all goes well!
Lindy2,
He suggested B6. Tried it twice but it made me so jittery, I couldn’t continue.
I’ll look into glutamine powder!😊
Thank you
I’d run the b vitamins by your oncologist - mine recommended against B vitamins - but I started glutamine powder which has helped.
