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...
@Locksley So good to see you with your ice set up. I'm so pleased to hear that more and more people are using cold therapy. I am certain it made a difference for me as the one week my hands warmed up I immediately got pain and numbness.
There are a few studies that show it works too, I found them with google but there are links in my other post about ice therapy.
I actually found all my nurses supportive and all my doctors. Even though I was the only one at the start doing this and we turned up with our esky on wheels every week :D
They were really interested and happy to help me follow my plan. It helped so much that my husband was on board too, like yours. Good luck with it xx
