I am on VTD and the worst side effect is the tingling of my toes and finger tips. My toes feel like blocks of ice all the time, fingers not so bad but quite dangerous if using hot water as my senses are not instant. The other slight side effect is the lack of taste, everything is a completely different taste........interesting!!!!!

I'm cancer free now, but when I was on chemo it was horrible. Ther ewhere days I couldn't even eat cause I had nausea all the time or vomited if I tried to eat something.

I had to be really careful of what and when I eated and be sure that I ate lots of nurishing things when I did had apetite.

It is tricky.
