I'm herceptin only, 1 year 5 months. I've had this problem for over a year, started about 4 months after starting Herceptin - maddening!

My splits lead to finger cracks - very, very painful, so many nerves in our fingertips - and I can use up a box of 60 bandaids in a few days, easy. I've been taking Gelatin caps, 10gr, 10-12 a day, for months with a small improvement (am thinking of increasing that). You can get great deals on this at Puritan's pride - they're having a buy 2, get 3 free sale (if I broke a rule naming a company, please excuse me). I mix bag balm and cream antiobiotic as a salve to put under the bandaids.

Also found, after years of searching, Shea Butter hand lotion, helps better than anything I've ever, ever tried. Given to me as a gift, but someone told me it's sold on QVC. Thanks also for the thyroid hint, I'm going to ask for a thyroid test.
