Tinnitus

Hi Dukescmd

Sorry to hear you are having theses problems.  I had the pins and needles (peripheral neuropathy) but didn't experience tinnitus although I have heard other speak of it.

You may find that both these problems will fade over the next couple of months, but do mention them to your oncologist or cancer specialist nurse on your next follow-up appointment (if that is due soon) or telephone your nurse to discuss the problems with her.

Macmillan have a help and support line, the number is 0808 808 0000 available Monday to Friday 9:00 am to 8:00pm and you can ask to speak to a nurse.

Unfortunately, for some people peripheral neuropathy will continue after treatment.  My chemo finished in 2012  and still have it, it is a nuisance but I have learnt to live with it.  Hopefully yours will get easier and disappear over the next few months.

Take care,

VickiLynne

Thanks I had to stop chemo early as it was getting too much with the cramps and aches.

Hi.

I hope you are ok.

I still get problems and I have still got crickets in my ears.

But I have had my next check up brought forward a year as things dont seem right .

But I guess that's what we all have.
