Hi Jude, I thought the ice gloves were more about protecting fingernails. Not too sure about neuropathy prevention. The other thing to protect nails is to wear dark nail polish, fingers & toes. It,s something to do with protecting them from the light. My chemo was through the colder months, so my toe nails were always covered by shoes, & have survived very well compared to my fingernails.
Hope you've had a lovely Christmas, with lots of family, love & laughter.
Take care, Lyn
