I have finished my chemotherapy now. When I am resting in a chair or lying down in bed I have a strange feeling that I am lying on golf balls or stones for want of a better description. I have asked the registrar oncologist the last 2 times I have seen him and he hasn't been able to offer an explanation. CT shows I am in remission. Anybody else found this. It is so uncomfortable and annoying

    I am sorry you are having strange after effects from paclitaxel. I had (and still have) issues with peripheral neuropathy that at times spread all the way up my leg into my buttocks, but mine usually presents as cramping and numbness. I hope it starts to resolve.
