Hi all
I had my first round of Paclitaxel on Thursday. Fatigue wise I have been fine but yesterday and today I have the achy muscles and joints.
I have found that ibuprofen and paracetamol aren’t really helping and I am also trying heat- hot water bottle.
I just wondered if anyone had any other tips to help ease it? Also if anyone did suffer with this too how long it lasted?
Thanks ️
