What Causes Restlessness, Low Grade Fever And Low BP While On Taxotere?

Posted on Mon, 20 Jun 2016

Question: My husband will have his 11th taxotere treatment Monday & woke at 8:00 with general agitation like "something is eating him inside." The restlessness prevents his sitting still for more than a few seconds. His body temp is 95.6. His blood pressure with perhaps an unreliable cuff has read 75/62 with heart rate of 80 & a second time of 83/58 with 77 heart rate. My email address is YYYY@YYYY .

I'm waiting for the requested data.

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you for asking!
I read your query and understood your concerns.

Since your husband is taking taxotere he is suffering from cancerous disease. His symptoms most likely are related to his malignancy.

However, inorder to help you with my advice can you send me his diagnosis and all his medical records?

I'm waiting for the requested data!
Wish you health!
