My partner is going through chemotherapy for a recurrence of colon cancer, spread to the liver. She is taking Avastin, oxaliplatin and 5FU and leucovorin. Most of her side effects are under control, but she is experienced severe neuropathy -- sensitivity to cold, tingling in her hands and feet, pain in her jaw and esophasgus, etc. We've been told that there are some drugs that may help, but that they tend to cause nausea -- which she already has and controls with drugs and would prefer not to aggravate.
Anyone have any good ideas about things that may help her?
Thank you.
