A few of us in this group have found heat helpful. I started with a warm bath before bed. I now put on the foot zone of the electric blanket before bed (turn off once I’m in) and it helps the vascular dilation and if vascular constriction is an issue then this certainly helps. Often there are multiple causes and more than one remedy required.
I am very sorry to hear you had to endure chemo - I do hope it was effective and you are recovering and now dealing with the aftermath of the treatment.
I really appreciate you taking the time to share what is working for you. It confirms the process of adding warmth is worth trying.

@lorry warmth helps I usually sleep with an electric blanket on these year round but it’s also turned on low about 9 months out of the year.
