What to expect with chemo docetaxel?

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.

Yes i ask the NP about that and she said docetaxel did cause that. Jeffmarc said no grapefruits and the NP said the same. I do appreciate all are helping with this path in my life. May God bless you all. I'm sure I'll have more questions.
