What to expect with chemo docetaxel?

One thing that I might add is to keep your head, hands, and feet cool during the infusion. I did not know about this and now have some "neopathy" ( most likely not spelled correctly) in my left foot and ankle. Other wise I only felt bad for about 4 days after each infusion.

Just FYI, not everyone gets neuropathy from docetaxel chemo infusions. My husband had six treatments spaced three weeks apart and suffered no neuropathy despite not cooling any parts of his body. In fact, no one at the cancer center mentioned cooling, nor did we ever see anyone else at the infusion center using it during their treatments. I just don't want you to worry if for any reason you can't do the cooling. Good luck to you.
