I have just finished my 12 x paxol and can’t offer much advice sorry. I have the numbness in my hands and feet never had any pain though. My oncologist did say it was up to me in the last 3 whether I continued or not which didn’t help me at all I mean they are supposed to be the experts! As much as it was annoying my head kept saying finish the treatments. I don’t know if or how long it will take to go away or if continuing would have made it any worse. Sorry I’m not much help it’s a difficult position I understand totally.
