Paclitaxel
I’m have trouble with my feet and hands after the forth treatment of Paclitaxel. My oncologist is talking about stopping it altogether. I still have 8 more treatments to go and was wondering if anyone...
Hi @Ween
I had my first Paclitaxel treatment yesterday. I asked my oncologist about ice therapy and he said he is getting a lot of questions about it and hasn't had a patient do it. I told him I was going to try and he said he will be interested to know how I go with it for the 12 sessions I am meant to have.
I was given some socks and I had ice packs in the top and the bottom of the socks and I double gloved my hands in ice jugs for the whole time and so far so good. I have attached a photo to show you. The nurse was lovely and got me the jugs of ice. Sending hugs xxx
