Ice Therapy Success - No Peripheral Neuropathy, All Nails Intact & No Mouth Sores

I think what you’re experiencing is not the the norm for paclitaxel. Even icing your hands and feet wouldn’t have helped with what you’re going thru I would guess - it sounds very extreme. No one ices where I am - the nurses are quite mystified when  I walk in with my esky and bind up my hands and feet in ice packs. Still, I haven’t heard of anyone having such a severe reaction, especially after one dose. Please talk with your oncologist before you have another dose.
