    Bridgette, I’m not real knowledgeable on this subject, but think it is called neuropathy. Definitely mention this to the oncologist. There are things you can do and take to help relieve these symptoms. I’m hoping others will be able to give you suggestions. You might also search on here for chemo induced neuropathy and see how others have dealt with it. Wishing you the best. Take care. Darla

    Hi Brigitte, I am sorry to hear this but YES ALWAYS mention anything new to the ONC. There may be something you can take for the pain but so very important to tell an ONC everything even that which one would think was very small. I sure hope he can find something to help you through the aches.

    I think the chemo is causing my feet and hands to ache these past few days. I know there is a name for that, but can’t think of it. There is no swelling. It has never happened to me before. I am seeing the oncologist next week so will mention it.
