Hi there. I'm a new user of this network so still finding my way around.
It's been 16 months since I had my mastectomy and axillary clearance. Chemo finished last June and Radiotherapy last Augus...
I didn't know what I was suffering from had a name. I'm off for my 5th round next week of taxotere & herceptin. For my 2nd & 3rd treatments, I had a reflexology treatent before the chemo, but couldn't get in before the 4th. Had the 4th round on the Wednesday & had to hobble in for my reflexology treatment on the Friday. Both of my feet had swelled up & were very painful to walk on. Had my reflexology treatment & hobbled home. The next day the swelling & pain went away. My toes have a slight numbing, but at least no pain. Keep up the reflexology as I believe it will help.
I'm hoping by now that it has started to relieve the pain for you as well.
Take Care, Wendy
