Is it normal to become clammy and have yellowing skin a few hours after Chemotherapy?
The yellowing of my skin did pass as well as the clammy feeling. I%26#039;m just wondering what caused them and if it could be a sign that something could be wrong. I also had numbness and tingling in my toes and ofcourse I felt very tired and weak which was to be expected. I have called and left a message for my Doctor, I just have not heard back from his office yet.|||It%26#039;s possible since all chemo drugs are basically %26quot;poisons%26quot; meant to kill tissue. The symptoms usually diminish with time, but let your MD know about it. Also remind him during the next visit for you may have another reaction. Best to be careful for you may need a smaller dose or change in chemo. Good luck.|||if that is all you get then lucky you i have friends that within 30 min they start throwing up all over the place sick as dogs have to lay down in a darkened room as lights gives them a headache to forget also they writhe in pain in total agony so if that is all you get then please grin and bear it hope you will get bettr soon|||You are probably on Taxol. Those symptoms are typical. You%26#039;ll have to deal with it. If the numbness and tingling gets so bad you can%26#039;t function, they can give you meds to help somewhat.|||when in doubt, contact the oncologist.
