Hi,
i am 7 months since finishing chemo and still have finger and toe numbness, tingling in my feet. I had painful calves and feet too. I have finished treatment but my oncologist says it could be chemo, lack of estrogen in my body?? Anyway, I've found it comes and goes and doesn't stay permanently.

i lost 2 big toenails and the other toenails went black bar 4 after docetaxol. Also ridges in my fingernails.

I did have laser acupuncture on my legs which drew blood to my nerve endings and finally had rested legs at night.
I hope you find something to lessen your side effects too.
all the best.
