HI Clara,
So sorry to hear about your husbands diagnoises.My husband (age 46) is in the same boat. In Aug.2006 he was diagnoised with stage 4 bladder cancer.. it had spread into his bones(hip,pelvis,spine,ribs) from reading your report it sounds like your husbands has also. first of all I think your doctors may have ordered another scan to see if the tumors are growing. If there are more lesions chances are the chemo isn't working. (only my opinion)second. from what you said about the side effects (fast pulse, pain in shoulder etc.) My husband had those same exacts side effects although they were from taxotere and taxol, which started immediately after the IV was started. Please let me know if I can be of any help to you, A questions? Did your husband show any signs of bladder cancer (blood in urine etc) before this diadnoises?
