sues Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 started my chemo yesterday .. today the arm that it was adminstered in is swollen.. not at the injection site ..the whole arm - not to where I can't use it or even that it hurts.. it doesn't..I just know that it's bigger and tighter than the other.. had carbo/taxol.. any else have had this problem ? Should I be concerned? I called the dr and they said that if it's still swollen in the morning to see them...they told me to keep it above my heart as much as possible.. I know that if there is someone here that has had this problem, I'd find out faster than even from the doc's.. appreciate any info.. just a little concerned.. sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasey Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 I had carbo/taxol with no swelling. Not sure that helps you. I would call first thing in the AM and get it checked - or at least question answered. Kasey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
