>>My finger and toe nails did the same thing, my onc said it is caused from the >>Taxol. There is really nothing that can be done to stop it,
I read a post on preventing this. But I am not doing it, though I might. This advice is probably the same as the one that says suck on ice cubes when doing taxol/Taxotere to prevent mouth sores.
And that is: Get bags of frozen peas and take them with you to chemo. Loosen the peas and pluge your finger (and toe) nails into the bags (closed, don't need to open them, freeze and reuse.) . It might help. Won't hurt. But I am not sure I can see myself doing it! If I can find the link for this I will post it later.
Anyone tried it?
