So Long to My Taxotere Nails

Saturday, January 9, 2010

My new nails have grown in aprox 60% since getting off Taxotere. Now I’m anxious to get rid of the remaining fattened and discoloured portions. I haven’t had any real discomfort in my finger nails for a few months now ... until last week. They started to feel a tender in the nail bed so I thought I better soak them BURO-SOL Powder TCD. I just don’t want to get an infection this late in the game.

I believe my finger tips are a more sensitive because of the new nails are coming in flat but the existing nail has become bowed up cause of the build up of old nail cells underneath. This crumbles away as I trim the old nail as the new nail grows in. I know... it looks gross.

Here is a pic what the top edge of my nails look like.
