Neuropathy

Peripheral neuropathy is one of the side effects associated with certain chemotherapies. The toes and fingers feel numb or tingle. I think I'm getting this after two rounds of Navelbine. The tips of my toes feel numb. Other symptoms I'm experiencing include constipation and cramping in my feet.

I plan to report all of these symptoms to Dr G when I see him later this week. Hopefully the neuropathy will remain minimal and then disappear after I discontinue the Navelbine.

Yet one more thing to deal with in CancerLand.....

And now a moment for another disease...

This week happens to be National Neuropathy Week. I have a friend who has multifocal motor neuropathy, and is raising money for the Neuropathy Association by selling handmade jewelry
