Diagnosed With Uterus Cancer. Had Total Hysterectomy. Spread To Top Of Cervix. Using Taxol And Carboplatin. Suffer Pain. Guide?

I was diagnosed with uteran cancer, had total hysterectomy Aug 2, 2013, spread to top of cervix. Nodes (26) taken were clean. Dr. suggested with go with chemo using taxol and carboplatin. Dr. called my cancer "reous cancer", aggressive and I probably had it under a year. I have had one chemo treatment so far, 6 hours for each of the total of 6 treatments. Then radiation. I, and friends have tried looking up reous and cannot seem to find this. Any suggestions or can you tell me anything about this cancer. I am 69, active and did not tolerate the taxol well. Very ill with pain on a scale of 0 to 10 at worst and Id say 13. Feet, fingers, every injured area on my body throbbed with horrible pain and my knees gave way to a fall. Diarrhea 14 times a day and had to go back to cancer center for bags of fluids. My hair fell out 2 1/2 wks after treatment. No fatigue, just horrible pain for 3 days. I wanted to die I hurt so much. 2nd treatment coming Sept 25. See dr and labs first. Will beg for stronger meds for pain. Recd vicodin 345 mg or near that. Never touched the pain. Can I be premedicated before starting treatment. The pain started two days after treatment. Any answers will be appreciated. Thank you.
