I had my second round today and shortly after I left I started having cold symptoms, sneezing, stuffy nose, nose draining..weird the way it just came on. I've never seen this as a side effect. Thanks, Kathy

Hi! Yes, this has happened to me. I had a sore through and sinus issues. I thought my onocologist was going to get mad at me for getting sick. He said it was a side effect of the chemo.

Thank you so much, that
Thank you so much, that helps alot to hear that, cause I wasn't finding it anywhere. Know it's not one of the more serious things like I'm reading today, but it helps to know. Also I had the jaw pain today with mashed potatoes, and when I drink the sharp knife feeling in the back top of my throat and today is just the first day. Wishing everyone well and I'll be resting here in my part of the world. /Thanks, Kathy
