Hi everyone
I am new to this forum and would like to know if anyone has experienced a persistent and frequent cough due to the side effects of Paclitaxel.
I am also having menopausal symptoms and insomnia.
I had surgery for HER2+ in March this year.
I had two treatments of A/C but had to stop due to lung inflammation.
I have now had my seventh treatment of Paclitaxel and the third of Herceptin.
I have Paclitaxel every week and Herceptin every three weeks
The coughing and insomnia are effecting my physical and mental health.
