Hi, I’ve had 2 infusions of Caelyx chemo and I’ve now got hand foot syndrome which has caused huge blisters on my toes. I’m worried that my team might hold the next infusion . Has anyone had these blisters and if so if you have any advice for me.

Hand-foot syndrome can be a challenging side effect, and treatment teams do sometimes need to adjust dosing or timing when severe symptoms like significant blistering occur. Many others in this community have navigated similar experiences with chemotherapy side effects and may have helpful insights about managing symptoms and working with their care teams during treatment adjustments.
