taxol dries us out, i bought some pure jojoba oil for my skin, you could tryto use as it is said to be closest to sebum our own oils, but definitely ask the team and try to get feet above heart level when resting

Thanks for your suggestions. Feet up doesn't seem to help but we will try the jojoba oil. 

Thank you. The chemo unit and great nurses seem to see it as one of those things and not too serious. It is very uncomfortable though having such tight ankles.
