    Hi smokeyginger,

    I've not had radiotherapy but I have developed neuropathy (numb hands and feet) from the chemo. It can take a long time to right itself as the chemo can cause nerve damage.

    Totally sympathise, it's so uncomfortable and painful. I would mention it to your oncologist. Mine didn't have any magic cure unfortunately. 

    Hope it goes ok with you
