Pins and needles in hands and feet

Following my first lot of chemo which I stopped at session 5 I developed tingling in my hand and feet. The palms of hands and bottom of feet are bright red and my fingers look like they have been in water for a long time. They seem to be numb and yet are like pins and needles and are icy cold to touch! Cannot fo buttons up or hold a pen or turn pages of newspaper easily, all very annoying! More so as I have began s new chemo treatment for my stomach cancer, I’m stage 4 and this treatment is palliative, which I seem to be responding to really well. Has anyone had this problem with hands and feet and how long did it last for?
