I hope it’s ok for me to write
My husband is on Folfox, currently at cycle 5, and the neuropathy is really starting to take a toll. I just want to help him in any way I can, but I’m not sure what else might make things easier for him. We’ve tried gloves, but I’d be so grateful for any tips or advice that have helped others. I’ve also read of people eating ice during the oxaliplatin infusion to help lesson the side effect and I’m wondering if anyone here has tried that and found it helpful.
