I had a
reaction to Taxol on my 3rd treatment 2 weeks ago. Actually, I had a very mild reaction the 2nd Rx, and they loaded on more Benadryl, steroids, etc, and I finished it. Then on the 3rd Rx, boom, 2 minutes into it, back pain, almost passed out, red all over , required O2 to breathe, etc The Oncs conferred and switched me to Taxotere. I had it that day.( along with the carbo) Your reaction sounds much more serious and I agree that they need to get to the root cause.
