Question 3

how do you handle the pain and discomfort of chemo?

Accepted Answer

Pain from chemo?myth: When patients say they are fearful of pain from chemotherapy, they are generally misinformed by others. Chemo is medicine taken by injection  or as pills. Just like any other medicine, there is no pain, other than when needle  goes into the vein which is momentary only.
So do not worry about it. let your oncologist and his/her staff teach you all that is expected, pain is not an expectation.

Question 8

could psoriasin help ease discomfort of herpes break outs

Accepted Answer

I : I do not believe psoriasin gel will be of great help. The active ingredient is coal tar, which will unlikely be strong enough for the intense pain from a herpes infection, and may actually cause irritation. The best thing to do is treata herpes outbreak, is with prescription medication specific for herpes (acyclovir, or valtrex), and use advil/ Ibuprofen for pain.
Please see your doctor for appropriate treatment.
Good luck.
