Thanks so much @shs14 I have completed 2 of my 12 taxol treatments and I am merrily using all of your tips on cold therapy for my hands and feet. I have used the links to buy what I needed from overseas but I find ice cubes in a bowl for my hands are the easiest as I can bury my fingers. I just top up the bowl as the ice melts. It just means being a little more organised for my treatment, but the nurses are great and let me know what time I will start so I can ‘ice up’ for 15 minutes before. I would have known about all of this because of this forum and I am up for giving anything a go. I will keep you posted about how it all goes, but for anyone wondering how they can manage it I would say give it a try - you can easily just use ice cubes in a bowl.
When we arrive with my esky - I just tell everyone we will be making margaritas in cubicle 6! You gotta find a bright side in all of this!!!
Thank you again - as someone who is new to this, I cannot tell you enough how much I appreciate the help and support I have received here.
