All please listen to you bodies. As some of you know I had a hard time with taxotere. Brutal Side effects, and then we found out it wasn't working.

We scheduled cabazataxel. This week, A week ago my head was pounding, I was nasuaues. There had been no chemo for weeks. I called the MO, got debriefed and was send to the Brigham and Women's ER. Cat scan, ex ray, MRI and facial Cat scan. Blockage in my left orbital sinus. Worried it was fungus among us, turned out it was fast growing PC in the bone.

Lesson verified, if it bothers the f-out of you go to the hospital.

So know talking to the RO and chemo. FOur days in hsopital. Keep you posted.

That's an important lesson -- when it comes to pain and discomfort, don't be a martyr -- speak up!

All the best for a great response to your treatment!
