Further Reduced Drip

So now I am into Cycle #4. Half way through the complete treatment at the end of this thee week cycle.

But Dr. Conn advised we try a half dose of the Oxaliplatin drip this cycle. Not exactly chuffed but I’m not going to gain say the expert.

And apart with a hiccough with the drip flow rate being too slow and then upped for the last half hour or so, it seems have gone well. The Peripheral Neuropathy is very much reduced. The only time I react to cold is if my bare hands get too cool while dog walking or I hold on to frozen goods too long. But otherwise I seem to be completely tingle free.

Interesting to realise that the ‘drip arm’ tingle disappears in warm bathwater. The flip side of this is that my chilled hands increase the tingling sensation but that it reduces as soon as I get back inside in the warm.
