Anyone's neuropathy gotten worse?
Good morning!
It might just be that my brain has taken a little vacation from worrying about other things, but it seems like the neuropathy in my legs is getting worse. When I am up and around, it doesn't bother me, but when I sit or lie down, it drives me nuts!
I have the "sock" neuropathy--like those sweat socks from the late 70's. It goes from my big toe up to just below my knee. I did start my Tamoxifen (finally) about two weeks ago--I know the clot risk, but what about neuropathy? Could it be a circulation issue?
I go to my ONC. on Monday for my third or second to last Herceptin. I like to go in with a little input from others. It's like the nail issue--I never had problems while on Taxotere, but have had them while on Herceptin!
Thanks,
