I had round 4 last Monday - 7 days ago. First of 3 of Docetaxel and Carboplatin after 3 of E & C. I have had stomach cramp & back pain for the last 6 days - no other issues - well apart from Oral thrush and a few other minor things. Anyone got any experience of whether this will ease eventually please? I was told I would feel like I have been run over by a truck and I have felt that way but have nearly turned the corner this weekend apart from the stomach and back pain.

  • Hi, I had my first Docetaxel last Thursday 3rd Feb and from the.go I have had stomach, bowel and joint/muscle problens.  Individually they wouldn't be too bad to manage but having them all together has made me feel like total crap. EC chemo.was a doddle compared to Doc.  I dont feel too bad today but my legs muscles and still quite sore x

    I agree, each on on their own is not too bad but low level and  so very wearing. EC was easier!
