Neuropathy in hips and back

Hi

Are you on Letrozole or similar?  I finished chemo in November and have developed foot drop - started to have symtoms in late February and gradually getting worse.  I now have now movement in foot.  I wondered if peripheral neuropathy related but they are busy checking me for secondaries (brain clear, and I am sure spine will be). But I think a SE of Letrozole as symptoms started when I started taking tablets.  Speaking to BCN about a break so this can be ruled out or in.  Wondered if your problem could be related to Letrozole or the like?

Hi 

I’m not on any medication as I’m tnbc but have pn in feet and hands too. They are fine it’s just the hip and groin area that is worse. My consultant didn’t seem concerned but my mind had been working overtime recently. 

Hi.  Might be worth going to GP as those pains could be symptomatic of hip degeneration.  They sound similar to what my Mum had before she had a new hip.  Worth checking?

Im with  get to the GP and do a bit of pestering 

Having a few x rays or scans will show what is happening but most of all it will allay those gremlins of worry

Hope to hear you’ve been and good news is on the cards

Positive and sustaining hugs

Hi , sorry yiu are having this troublesome pain/numbness. Agree with the others, it could be coming from your back, and needs further investigation. GP consult would be a good idea, and as Leolady56 says, keep,pestering. Good luck xx

Thanks all. Been to the doctors and had blood test and X-ray. All come back clear so feeling very relieved. Still numb but reassured it’s nerve damage.
