Hi @dianemb, sorry to hear that you are having to switch treatments. Hopefully you continue to feel ok.
Here's a link to some older chit-chat about docetaxel from a different cancer group which may be helpful.

How many treatments are you scheduled for?

I understand the usual course is six treatments, then a three month rest. Unless another clinical trial comes up that I would qualify for. I’m trying the cold cap business to try and keep my hair. It’s not guaranteed but I thought I would give it a go. It’s a bit uncomfortable but manageable. Thank you for your concern. It helps me immensely.
