Sore feet post treatment

I have completed both chemo and radiation treatment on 20 Nov '12. One of the chemo drugs was texatere which I had several bad side affects one being my feet where so hot and sore that I could not walk for a couple of days. I also lost a layer of skin on the soles of my feet. I am now experiencing extremely sore feet again (since completing radiation). Wanting to know if anyone else has experienced this and if so please advise what you did.

    Hi Paula,

    Thanks for your input on "sore feet". Although you may not think this has helped me, it has as I don't feel I am alone with having sore feet and that these side affects have also been experienced by others. Thank you for your reply.

    Regards

    Sue

    Hi Sue. I had taxol chemo and had the same problem with my feet.Im okay once i get going.But when i get out of bed or from sitting down i hobble around like an old lady. I am 2 years after and still have incredible sore burning peeling feet.Noone seems to know why and dont know what to do about it. My GP has just given me a pain patch to wear that i change weekly.At the moment its made the pain a lot more bearable. Im sorry i couldnt give u a remedy for this if you ever find one id love to know. Goodluck Annie x
