A top tip for anyone experiencing neuropathy in their hands.

A device that looks a bit like a handled, long metal pronged comb that really is known as "slicer cutter holder"

Prongs go into your onion, fruit or veg with handle at top. You can then cut with your knife, between the holder prongs.

Voila! No more slicing your fingers because you lost feeling. I just wish i'd found this months ago .

You can buy for abou £3

Just wanted to add if you are going to hospital for an infusion take lots of treats for yourself decanted into zip lock bag. I had crisps, sweets etc.  Much easier to open a zip lock bag than a packet of crisps etc. Trying to do things one handed is not at all easy! X

Good idea.plus wear clothing that is easy to deal with one handed when visiting the loo attached to a drip stand

I also found putting a keyring circle or bit of ribbon loop onto my trouser zips helped

Thought I would bump this up to the top to make it easier to find I had noticed a few new people asking about chemo.

Another tip from me .I lost my hair on capox and was advised that once it started to grow back to only wash it once a week with very mild shampoo.

Finding these tips really helpful for my dad he just started his second round of Folfox on Friday pump will be removed tomorrow! This time he’s had pins and needles in his arms and feet

Not sure if this has been mentioned already (there’s 10 pages of great tips here!) but my top tip is to keep a hospital bag packed and ready. If you need to dash to A&E whilst on chemo it’s a comfort to have a bag of things that you can just grab and know you have everything you’ll need. Chargers, a good book etc 

You have a point there Ali123 

Ten pages is a lot of reading . I will need to go through it and put it into a list at some point !!!

Hope your well . A great idea !
