Hi everyone, had my first session of paclitaxel this week after 4 sessions of Ec finally completed. Survived my steroid hot face/chest day yesterday (as experienced with EC) but last eve, through the night and so far today I've got a sore throat I can't shift despite copious drinks and sucking on sweets. Still able to eat though.
Temp is normal so don't think it's infection.
Any good tips/suggestions to shift it and please tell me it fizzles out after a while?!
