Is anyone out there experiencing side effects from the Chemo Therapy drugs?
I have Neuropathy, a nerve damage condition, that is now subsiding but seems like it is trying to hang on.
I am experiencing the Neuropathy in the knees down, in my arms and hands. I am 4 yrs out....To subdue the dryness I apply Shea Butter.I am experiencing the Neuropathy in the knees down, in my arms and hands. I am 4 yrs out....To subdue the dryness I apply Shea Butter.
I finished chemo Oct 24 of 07 and still have side effects in my fingers from this - as well as dmg to my fingernails. Seems it can last quite a while. My fingers are tingly and both my thumbs and ring and middle finger on one hand are extremely dry and split. I also have the same splitting on both heels, what a pain? Guess it can take quite a while (if ever) to get rid of it, hang in thereI finished chemo Oct 24 of 07 and still have side effects in my fingers from this - as well as dmg to my fingernails.
