- Anybody know about a drug called Taxol? I've heard very little about it,
- and wanted to find out more about it for someone with both Stage II Breast
- cancer and Stage II Lung cancer (non-small cell). This person has had
- a lobectomy for the Lung cancer, and lumpectomy/radiation/Tamoxifin for
- the breast cancer.
-
- All I know about it is that its a recent drug that is helpful in
- shrinking Cancer tumors.
-
- Thanks in advance...
