Are you on caelyx... ? red foot is a known symptom!

My left foot was ( before all this 🙄 Started ) and still is much poorer on circulation, prone to fungal infection and much colder than the right foot.... I only managed 2 infusions of caelyx but the redness as you describe was astonishing - a classic case the onc said !! Calmed down a bit now and neuropathy taking over after full whack of taxol. Keep moisturising and moving toes etc

Is your neuropathy easing at all, Janet? And how about the fingernails, is there an improvement?

My feet are awful, red cracked and painful as well as neuropathy so have just started to try the Epsom salts! Moisturising has only helped a bit but I am still hobbling about on them . I had the neuropathy from the first line carbo taxol and the dry sore cracked skin after caelyx. I wonder why it attacks feet so badly??

Hope you can still get around on them though xx
