While A/C is not the usual culprit for neuropathy, I experienced it after my chemo (A/C).
I had the burning feeling in the toes and buzzing, vibrations in the legs.
I did experience the buzzing feeling in different places over my whole body at times, but mainly in the legs and feet.
I've been on Gabapentin since I finished chemo, and am just now trying to lower the dosage to see if I can get off of it completely.
Also, for me, the worst times were when I went to bed at night.
