Has Anyone Tried Icing Hands And Feet During Chemo And Did It Help Preve Nt Neuropathy?
I was told to change every 25 minutes which meant three sets. I go dragging a cooler. I was so new to this I just did it because they highly recommended. I was in a fog my husband ordered them before we left the info session
There is nothing wrong with trying as many ideas as you agree with trying…some may help
I ordered some gloves and booties to use after reading all your replies. I am scared of getting neuropathy so I hope this helps. I feel sort of silly trying it though like I'm grasping at straws.
I wore ice booties and mittens with my weekly Taxol infusions. I had 2 sets of each and changed them at 45 minutes. I had some neuropathy in my legs which has resolved. I am about 1 year post chemo treatment.
I’m currently using ice booties and mittens with weekly taxol. Some weeks it’s really rough. I don’t know if it’s because I’m a bariatric patient and cold sensitive. It seems to help wearing light cotton gloves. Pregaming with Flonase and Tylenol too. It’s doable. After six weeks I’ve had no neuropathy
