Nanoxel chemo is same as paclitaxel.
Only thing nanoxel has nanoparticle bound paclitaxel. It does not require steroid premedications and chances of hypersensitivity is low.
Useful in diabetic patients where giving steroids are difficult
thanks.

Hello,
Treatment options in recurrent cervical cancer is very limited.
The management mainly depends on the primary treatment received and the site and extent of recurrence.
In your case as the patient had already received chemoradiation, so in case of recurrence the only viable option remains is of carboplatin or cisplatin based chemotherapy. Despite treatment, the prognosis is guarded.

Most of medical problems need personally taking detailed medical history and examination with need of new+old reports so meet concerned doctor-Oncosurgeon more so who is specialised in breasts. So instead of looking for answers from others stick to specialist.

While these may be the side effects of chemotherapy, they may also be a subtle pointer towards drop in white blood cell counts specially if the patient is taking the chemotherapy on a weekly basis. The patient also needs good pain management.

Chemotherapy drugs such as paclitaxel or docetaxel may cause myalgia , arthralgia for few days after each cycle. Depending on the severity use of analgesics for few days will be helpful.

The goal of the treatment in such cases would be palliative only, which means to increase longevity without causing much side effects of the drugs and reduce his problem.
