Preventing Neuropathy with cold gloves and socks?

Hi all, I'm starting ECT chemo in a couple of weeks and finishing putting my chemo bag together.  Has anyone successfully used the freezer pack/gloves/socks during chemo to prevent neuropathy? I'm not sure whether to buy them or not and before I did I hope someone on here has had experience of using these. I've decided against cold capping so I think I could tolerate the cold if it helps my hands and feet.

Also, can anyone have a look at my list and see if I've forgotten anything:

Softest blanket ever, E45 cream, my beloved Kindle with Audible and headphones, snacks, water bottle, wet wipes, antiseptic wipes, Gengigel mouth wash/dry mouth spray, puzzle book, notebook and pen, ginger tea bags, anti nausea wristbands, Anbesol

I'm preparing for the worse and hoping for the best!

thanks Liz
