I just completed four rounds of at A/C. Over the weekend I started experiencing side effects in my hands and feet. My feet felt like they were about to explode, like they were swollen, but they were not swollen. It felt like I have been walking on broken glass, and they were hot like having a fever. After research my daughter, who is a nurse, and I concluded that I had symptoms of the hand and feet syndrome also known as Palmar Planter Erythodysesthesia. One of the main contributors to this is adriamycin. Does anyone have experience with this?
