Taxol side effect?

Nancy2581

Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this. I have pain in my hip/joint at times. It's the worst in the morning. I literally cannot stand on the leg for a few moments as pain shoots down it. As I start moving around it gets better and when I go on long walks with my dogs I don't even feel it unless I tweek my leg the wrong way. Doesn't bother me when sitting or laying down but when I get up it's there and shoots down my leg for a few seconds. It's not as bad as when I first get up in the morning though. This happened after taxol #6. It was literally not there one day and there the next. Have had it for about 10 days now. I'll discuss with my MO when I see her. By the way taxol #6 hit me hard not just the pain in my right hip/ joint/thigh.

Thanks

Nancy

I experienced muscle spasms in my low back as a result of the Taxol. It sent me to the ER because once it started and progressed to where I couldn't stand or lay down with out my body contracting. It was terribly painful. I was given muscle relaxers and pain pills to control it. Once I ended the Taxol, they went away. I wish you well.
