I have had 4 rounds of AC and two of Taxol (two to go). My ears seem to be clogged up and I'm having problems hearing. Do you think this is a head cold or could it be related to taxol? anyone have this problem? Thanks

    I have no answer to your question, but I had ear problems during chemo and after too. It seems that no one thought it was related directly. Possibly an indirect correlation because I was laying around more and my ears and sinus' were not draining as they should ....like in the none chemo times when I liked keeping my head up instead of laying down all the time. Hope it clears up for you. Did you ask your doc???
    Two more Taxol for you..yeah!!

    Thanks for your response. The doctor said there are a variety of problems you can get from chemo, but I didn't have one of them. He said my ears were clogged. I wondered if chemo had something to do with it but he didn't think it did. Anyway, I'm fine. thanks for responding. Sandi
