Yeah chemo makes all kinds of scary, bizarre shit start happening.
I dunno how you feel about this or what your history in the sun is...
But I really think that it could benefit you to maybe just check out a pair of skimpy swim shorts and wear only that, and head outside at least like 3 times per week to get some super direct sun exposure on your body.
You've really been through it, and these treatments have undoubtedly disrupted a lot of your systems.
It's fortunate that we're at the start of the vitamin D synthesis season just now, because this means you can potentially start to immediately heal any disrupted systems in your body with that sunlight, BEFORE you start seeing any symptoms manifest.
You may be able to lessen the hiccups that chemo causes throughout your various replenishment systems by getting the sun exposure this spring/summer...
That way you don't have to wait and see the symptoms manifest down the road when you're back into the fall/winter season and have to wait several months to even have a chance at vitamin D synthesis again.
