Sore fingers and toes

Hi Yvette, I too am on Docetaxel my 1st one, and suffering from tingling fingers and toes. I too am looking for advice on how to release this.

Wishing you well

Hi Yvette, I  have had 2 doses of docetaxel  and tingling in fingers and toes. It does go after a few days but if it Carrie's on too long contact red card for advice xx

I hope you feel  better soon x

Thanks I will try that xx

Hi Yvette it sounds like you have got the beginnings of neuropathy which is common with some of the drugs which can then cause problems with feet going completely numb and difficulty s with buttons etc  would tell your nurse/consultant at you next meeting so it can be kept an eye on they might need to lower your drugs strength slightly I have seen recommendations for cold socks and gloves helping  and there are stretching exercises you can do to just flex your hands and feet 

Thank you so much I will try them
