I finished chemo for breast cancer on 6t Feb 2024. I had 4 EC and 12 Pacli. During the Pacli my feet and ankles became very swollen. I was already on blood thinners from a clot that appeared in my arm from the picc line so was told it would likely go down after treatment.
I am now nearly three months on and I am still suffering with swollen ankles, calves and feet. My feet are no where near as bad as they were but the pain in my left food particularly is pretty awful. The pain is mostly on top of my foot and feel like it has been bruised and have hardly any mobility in my ankle. Some mornings, I can hardly walk when I get out of bed. I have followed the advice of keeping my feet up when I can, going for walks etc etc. I am also having reflexology which helps but doesn't keep it at bay.
Is there anything that might be causing this? I have spoken to my GP, my oncologist, and my diabetes team (type 1) and no one seems overly concerned but but in the meantime I am in quite a lot of discomfort and unable to get on with life.
