Taxotere Severe Skin Reaction Time Line?

I have had 3 full infusions of the TC regimen. I started experiencing a bad skin reaction on my hands/feet after the 1st infusion. My oncologist did not want to lower the strength and just prescribed more steroids every day. Each infusion the condition of my skin gets worse. My hands are red/stiff feeling and the skin is peeling. The same goes for my feet but to a lesser degree. It has been 2.5 weeks since the third infusion and it is not better. I am not willing to do the fourth infusion with the Taxotere due to these side effects. I am going to finish the 2nd drug of the 4th infusion.

Has anyone had this problem with their hands/feet? I have read that this continue to happen even weeks after stopping chemo. How long will it take for these symptoms to go away. I am using a thick moisture cream to prevent the skin cracking.
