Hi, my mum has just completed her 3rd cycle of i-cap and is experiencing really bad neuropathy in her feet. This is really getting her down as she enjoys going on walks but this is affecting her ability do so.
She says it alternates between feeling numb to feeling like shes walking on glass.
We were told the main side effects of irinotecan are mainly gastro related. However last year my mum underwent 6 cycles of capox, and we were told the oxaliplatin causes neuropathy. Once my mum completed the capox , she had some pins and needles but nothing too bad, however now shes started on the new regime she says its worsened.
Sorry this has turned ibto a bit of a ramble but I just wondered if anyone has any advice to help ease it please x
