Awesome! When my husband was on Xeloda - his feet were bright red & the skin all peeled off! We nearly stopped the chemo at that point, it was so debilitating! Wish we'd known about those ice socks back then!!
He was always very itchy as well - we found that plain old Cornflour reduced the itch. I would put him in the shower or bath & sprinkle it all over him & gently rub it on & let the 'leftover' land in the bath/cubicle. After he got out, I just turned the taps on to get rid of the 'overflow cornflour'. ;)
