Neuropathy

I have really bad neuropathy in both my feet - I have one more chemo left - is there anything I can do to relieve the pain. I do cold water therapy on my feet and also rub cream on them - 

  • Hello and thanks for posting

    Unfortunately some cancer drugs do affect the nerves in hands hands and feet. This can get better over time, once the treatment has stopped.  

    We have some information on our website about peripheral neuropathy and how it can be managed which I hope you find useful.

    Please get back to us if you need any more information or support.  You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

    Kind regards,
