Complications from chemo

Hi there @Bbryce...I'm so sorry to hear about all your recent problems, and most especially, the loss of your mother. You asked specifically if anybody else has had problems with numbness in their leg or legs. Yes I do. I have a weird feeling, in both legs, that I'm wearing calf length socks, just below the knees, that have been dipped in local anaesthetic. The surface of the skin is numb from my toes to just below the knees. But the strange thing is that other stimulation is just all different. When I walk, it feels as if I have a car washing sponge (those big fat ones) strapped to the soles of my feet and so eack step I take feels spongy and also puts me slightly off balance. Underneath that spongy feeling, is the sensation that I'm walking on a cobbled street. or a beach with pebbles. A sort of hard bumpy surface, covered by the sponges. Some sharp things I feel really badly. An example, we have cats and sometimes the cat sand which has little stony bits, sticks to their paws and ends up on the carpet. If I step on one with bare feet, it feels like I've stepped on a red hot pin. On the other hand, once I was wearing open shoes and thought one foot was really sweaty as it was sliding back and forth in the shoe. Turned out to be blood. I had a small piece of grit between my toes and it had rubbed a big sore between them which I hadn't felt. I also have the problem when walking, that if I can't see my feet, I don't know where they are, and end up "scissoring" them, or rolling my ankle over and risk falling. Because I also have severe osteoporosis, I can't afford that, and now use a granny four wheeled walker. I'm 60. My grandson calls it "Granny's Pram" and rides on the seat like a king!!!
