Chemo and Incontinence?

Can taxotere and cytoxan chemos lead to poor bladder control and bedwetting?
Has anyone had these side effects when being treated for breast cancer?

I too stumbled across your post. I did cytoxin,adriamycin, FU5 agessively for 6mths. I'm have nerve damage in hands and feet as well as urinary incontinence. My primary just blew it off. I have read many women who've done chemo for breast cancer having these side effects.

I've had taxotere adriamycin and cytoxin for breast cancer. I am now having some incontinence and think it may be part of the nerve  damage I've experienced in my hands and feet (numbness). I feel like it's not a very common side effect (if that's what it is). I also have a weak voice for about a month. I go back to the Oncologist next month for some answers.

Did you ever get an answer to this question?  I stumbled across your post because I was wondering the same thing-except I am taking Taxol.
Thanks,
