text: is docetaxel inferior to, or superior to, paclitaxel for stage iii, er+, pr+, node+ postmenopausal patients? neoadjuvant treatment. limited response to first 4 cycles of a/c from personal experience, both are very toxic, with some really adverse side effects. my body did not like docetaxel (taxotere) and tolerated paclitaxel a little better.    i wish you well
