Has anyone experienced dry peeling skin around fingernails while on IV chemo? Any tips? I am using Eucerin cream right now. Thank you so much!

I am on Xeloda which is an oral chemo drug and i experience that on my hands and feet. I keep it pretty much in check by using aquaphor. Sometimes I soak my feet in warm water with epsom salt and some lavender oil. Seems to help and I should do it more often.

I use a Vit E oil on my feet, hands, arms and legs. The nurse putting in my IV for my last Zometa infusion complemented me on my soft skin! It rubs in and doesn’t feel greasy.
