WHY are my feet killing me - what to do?

I'm sure that years of her2 drugs are catching up with me. I feel like my feet are killing me all the time. They feel like I walked on burning hot sand, like they are roughed up, sore, that feeling of walking on glass. I've had similar weird sensations on my palms, related to when I was on Tykerb or xeldoa. But now just on Vitamin H plus Avastin. Sometimes the feet souls are red, other times they look shiny. I"ve tried various foot creams, epsom soaks, cold water soaks, wearing cotton sox as compared to the new smart wicking socks which seem hot to me. That's another thing now, too, my feet get hot and painful if in tennis shoes, or running shoes. Thank god I can still wear my dance shoes.

I see my team tomorrow, I feel certain no one will have an answer, suggestion or admit to another patient having the same probs.

I also feel certain that someone on this site has experienced this, and may even have an effective solution!

Look forward to your words.

Re: WHY are my feet killing me - what to do?

sounds like neuropathy to me - very common. I have read recently about frozen gloves and socks to wear during treatments. I used bags of frozen veggies. That delayed but did not prevent neuropathy. Perhaps I did not put them on early enough ot use them long enough to fully work.

Re: WHY are my feet killing me - what to do?

It sounds like neuropathy to me too ... i have had it/still have it to a certain degree. I wear thick foam sandals most of the time that I got from land's End. Best $20 I have ever spent.

I can't walk on sidewalk/pavement for longer than a quarter mile or so without being in pain. So now for exercise I mostly do Leslie Sansone walking dvds in the house on the carpet, always wearing my walking shoes or my sandals.

I wish I could offer more than just to let you know you are not alone.

Aug 18, 2013: MRI report says Left breast is perfectly healthy "consistent with previous studies".

Sept 2013: I insist on a bilateral mastectomy anyway. Too nervewracking to let left breast remain with higher risk after 3 cancers in right, nipple in right is already gone anyhow.

Sept 18, 2013: Bilateral mastectomy, 11 right nodes removed, ALL negative BUT -- ER+/PRO+/HER2+ tumor, 1.0 cm, Grade 2 found in a piece of "grossly unremarkable" breast tissue from prophylactic mastectomy of left breast, no nodes removed.

Oct 25, 2013: 13 left side nodes removed, ALL negative, Stage 1 across the board, NO RADS needed, YAAAAY! Port also installed.

Nov 25, 2013 Begin 6 rounds TCH.

March 10, 2014 Just finished 6th and LAST Chemo today, YAAAAAY!

March 24, 2014 Echocardiogram to make sure I'm still good for Herceptin every 3 weeks.

March 31, 2014 Echo results NORMAL, first Herceptin all by itself. Now if only my eyes would stop streaming from the Taxotere ... :)

April 21, 2014 Started Arimidex and therapy for "mild" lymphedema in left hand and arm

May 2014 Therapy completed, I have sleeves and gloves for both arms, a Flexi touch lymph pump to hook up to for an hour every day, and I've become an arm bandaging expert. :)

June 2014 Begin Fosamax to prevent osteoporosis; bone scan revealed osteopenia

Nov 17, 2014 FINAL Herceptin!

Dec 4, 2014 My right thigh muscle has been extra achy for days ... I discover a blister rash cluster on the side of my right thigh while taking a shower. Port appointment cancelled until Dec 17, my doc is working me in tomorrow afternoon to see me and the rash. My muscle at least feels less achy.

Dec 5, 2014 Yep, I have shingles. Boo! I start acyclovir and also have a prescription for a painkiller just in case for over the weekend.

Dec 17, 2014 Port is OUT!

January 2016 Shingles again and this time it started where my left breast (where the hidden HER2+++ tumor was!) used to be. My onc nurse got me a same day appointment to see my doc when I called and told her I had a rash on the site. The antiviral meds are working once again, though, so that is good news. :)

Re: WHY are my feet killing me - what to do?

Hi All
Think I have same problem.
I have spent a small fortune on shoes recently only to wear once and give away or E-bay!! I can feel every seam, texture & tiny imperfection. Just had to return an otherwise comfy leather mule because edges of insoles irritated/burned my feet. So I am guessing its neuropathy!
I have been on Herceptin now for over 2 years and would say this side effect has been worse recently.

Web MD has a list of vitamins that might help and someone told me to try massaging fingers and toes, particularly after treatment.
Only shoes that are comfy at the moment are all leather comfort mules ( Joseph Siebel) Not the prettiest but comfy!!

Re: WHY are my feet killing me - what to do?

Hey Flory,

Have you ever looked into essential oils? I picked up a book on them at a local book store and found a company that isn't a MLM pyramid (Native American Nutritionals is the co.). There are some great ointments and creams you can make yourself that are truly amazing. I have one that I use for inflammation that a friend gave us and frankly I was a skeptic until I used it and was astonished. I was then prompted to look further and to purchase the ingredients to make my own cream.

Re: WHY are my feet killing me - what to do?

Consensus by NP (not my usual one) was, "sounds like neuropathy" and excitedly wanted to offer me more pills - ug, just what I do not want or need. I tried to explain it was not severe, I can't walk pain - more discomfort and wanted to know what to do or avoid, etc. She offered me no info. Eventually I'll see my doc who will at least be able to answer some questions.

Meanwhile, thanks for the suggestion, Laurel - I just ordered a couple of blends from Native American Nutritionals - seems like a good starting point!! Meantime cool water soaks seems to help. And ocean water for sure felt good

Re: WHY are my feet killing me - what to do?

Ocean water is the cure for everything! I wish I was near the coast. But seriously, I found that the most comfortable shoes I can wear are SAS. They are soft and don't rub anywhere. Pricey but worth the cost. Hope you get relief
Keep the faith

Got my ingredients today. I hope to have time to work up a batch. I will post the recipe after I have attempted it myself thinking that I may have a few tips.
