My chills have now moved from every couple of weeks to several times a day. I checked with my oncologist's office about the chills and they volunteered to move my appointment from April 1st to later this month. I am not a happy camper. I am dreading seeing the results of the blood work.

Hi Norma. Oo brrr. Being chilled like that is so uncomfortable isn’t it? I’ve had that happen and no matter what I did it was difficult to warm up completely. @aleeab gave you some good ideas in their reply to you.
In desperation I used to grab blankets or bath towels and toss them in the dryer. When they were good and hot, I’d curl up on the couch in my snuggy cocoon. I often wished I had one of the blanket warmers like they have in hospitals! My nurses spoiled me. ☺️

It’s good to hear that your oncologist can get you in a couple months earlier than scheduled. I’m curious, when you’re experiencing the chills, have you taken your temperature?
