I have noticed that all my nail beds are turning a very dark color has anyone else noticed it. Maybe a side effect of chemo . Just wondering if anyone else has had this and will it go back to normal after treatment stops.

    Hi There!
    I believe someone else had posted about this before awhile back, and that the answer was some did have this as a side effect from chemo. I don't have it, but I know others do.

    Hugsss!
