Chemo moan for the day: nails are still falling/(or have) fallen off on toes and hands reaching some kind of nail new low. Have holes in hands still as body wont heal from previous biopsies of gigantic blisters. Body not amused.

Meanwhile, taxol dose had to be reduced again and plan reevaluated as body not tolerating taxol at all. Aiming for 5 more rounds this cycle rather than 12. Sounds good; is bad. The more chemo, the greater the chance of operability. You want to tolerate the full dose and the full course. But sometimes you just can't.
