Are you Caring for a Partner & Parents with Dementia/Alzheimers
Just wondering how many of us are actively caring for partners or parents with dementia/alzheimers? If there are enough interested in doing so, we could ask the mods for our own group, to discuss...
Hello @arpie sorry I’m so late to reply. I’ve recently finished 6 months of Capecitabine and therefore, hopefully, my active treatment. Initially I was on 3 pills twice a day, a total of six a day, and after a few weeks I could hardly walk my feet were so sore. So my onco immediately stopped me taking it until my feet healed, and we dropped the dose back by one pill down to 5 a day. That fixed it for me. I used Moogoo exczema and psoriasis cream on my feet.
My hands eventually went dry and leathery too, they felt really really yucky and sometimes my palms felt like they were burning. Oh joy! I just moisturised multiple times a day with Dermaveen hand cream. Felt really nice and not too greasy.
Im so glad his bloods are looking much better. Well done both of You!
hugs
