Hi Graham,
Thank you for your reply and for the practical tips. I’m glad and encouraged that your wife hasn’t had too much bother with the Dara, as the information sheet doesn’t make cheerful reading. I hope the treatment is continuing to go well for her.
Of course every possibility has to be covered. I remember one of the medications for first-line treatment warned of the possibility of developing ‘a black hairy tongue’ and I’m forever grateful I didn’t develop one of those!!
I read somewhere else recently that massaging the hands and feet with cocoa butter can help with the PN so I’m going to try that, as well as the relaxing music that you suggested.
In a weird way I’m looking forward to getting started now and ticking off the cycles. It’s an unusual New Year’s resolution to be sure!
Rachel
