Hi Adriana,
I'm sorry you are having such a bad time. I have had two rounds of Taxotere and 10 minutes before the infusion starts I put my fingers in a baggie full of ice. The ice has melted a little by the time I receive Taxotere. I keep my fingers in the baggie while I receive Taxotere. The nurse warned me not to let my fingers turn blue so when they get really cold I take them out for a few minutes to warm up. I also sucked on ice cubes or tried to for the one hour of Taxotere infusion. My fingers feel normal but my tongue gets sore and I lose my sense of taste so I don't think the ice helped that much but I will keep doing it. I have magic mouthwash which is wonderful. I also rinse with salt water. The only toothpaste I can use is children's fruit flavor. Try the ice bath since it costs nothing and it is worth a try. I use cold booties on my feet which we purchased. They are not as cold as the baggie of ice but I like them because there is no mess. You can do this!!!!
