I have continued to cycle 2, they changed Taxol drug to Abraxane after an allergic reaction. I’m also back to taking 80mg Tagrisso after it was stopped for 3 weeks. So far now after about 12 days of it daily, not much itching.

This is one of those things people see on TV where they say don't use this drug if you're allergic to it or any of its ingredients. Abraxane and Taxol are both paclitaxel packaged in a different delivery medium. Taxol is packaged in Cremophor EL which many many people have a hard time with and the reason they premedicate you before the infusion. Abraxane is packaged in a human protein albumin. Our bodies already use this protein to transport all sorts of things through our blood.
