I have been having chemo (3 weeks on then a rest week) for 14 months and other than a small increase in my tumour which 5 sessions of radiotherapy stopped my condition has remained stable.
For several weeks now my right foot has been swollen and my toes have had pins and needles. My chemo nurse spoke to my oncologist who said that because my foot is normal when I wake up after a nights sleep it shouldn’t be a problem.
i know that I shouldn’t Google but I did and it said it could be something called chemo foot which worries me because I’m scared that they may stop my chemo. It also said that it could be caused by steroids. I have COPD which requires a steroid inhaler plus my chemo starts with steroids first.
Has anyone had a foot problem from either chem or steroids because I’m not sure what to think.
