Guest DeeHee Posted August 20, 2004 Share Posted August 20, 2004 How long for the numbness in my feet and ankles to wear off.......if/when I can stop Taxol chemo treatments? Wish me luck on the CT on 9/3/04. DeeHee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angie Daughter of Bill Posted August 20, 2004 Share Posted August 20, 2004 Dee, I hate to be a party pooper, but my Dad had his last carbo/taxol tx about 2 1/2 months ago and his feet and ankles are still numb. I am praying for the feeling to come back as he has a hard time getting "grounded" when going from sitting to standing. Wishing you luck on that CT scan. In my thoughts and prayers~~~ Angie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeTaa Posted August 20, 2004 Share Posted August 20, 2004 I don't have a clue about the answers to your questions, but please know I'm thinking about you. Blessings, TeeTaa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAnn Posted August 20, 2004 Share Posted August 20, 2004 I had terrible numbness in my feet and toes while on Taxol/Carbo. The numbness started to be less noticable after I was off the chemo for about 2 months, I haven't had that chemo since August of 2003 and I have complete feeling in my feet and toes again! (It didn't take that long to regain feeling, probably about 3-5 months after chemo) TAnn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MurielK Posted August 20, 2004 Share Posted August 20, 2004 I was on taxol & carbo, last treatment was Nov 18, 2003. The numbness is gone, but 3 toes on each foot (the middle three) still tingle. I'm barely aware of it most of the time. Muriel K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
