is it normal for a cancer patient going through chemo to feel constantly cold ?
Hi Don
I finished chemo nearly three months ago, I was always cold. Lived in thermal wear. Now it's just my feet, constantly feel like blocks of ice to the touch but the rest of me is fine.
Best wishes

hey jb sorry for delay in replying as oyu will prob know things are pretty hectic , hubby hasnt been able to have his chemo for 2 weeks as his bloods are off , hes started getting terrible headaches ect just worried about how cold he does get then the next minute hes quite hot ..........
Hi
dint apologise we have all been there, hectic for all involved. What a shame about the bloods hope this is resolved soon and the treatment can get a move on. It's a really tough regime to go through, I would just say keep notes of everything and relay it back to the nurse or oncologist. There are lots of things that can be done to help with side effects. Not everything but at least try and make it more comfortable. I'm keeping you in my prayers for things to get better, don't give up
best wishes
