Trying Something Else for Hand-Foot Syndrome

Hi, All - I've been using a MG217 coal tar lotion on the hand-foot syndrome patches on my feet since 11/08/2008. It's made to treat psoriasis, but what is hand-foot syndrome but a deterioration of the skin tissue like psoriasis? I cleared it with my oncologist today. I think it's helping some with the pain. I'm using it in conjunction with Bag Balm, which has helped the peeling immensely.
