Welcome @ginlou65, I'm sorry to hear you are having to deal with the side effects of chemotherapy. I can tell you that you are not alone and that there are many members with experience that may have some suggestions to try. The Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy recently had a webinar that you may find helpful:

There is also a discussion that you might find helpful:

Have you tried any complementary or alternative treatments to see if they may provide some relief for the pain?

Good morning John.
Thank you for the links, I will definitely look into them. This last pain has been different in that it has lasted me a full 26 hours! Not intense as it was when it first jolted me awake yesterday, but still a burning and tingling and sensitive to the touch? Other than Tylenol 3 with codeine at night; this is all I’ve tried. I see my PCP on Wednesday and I’m going to ask her if using medicinal MJ would help and is it safe with all of my other medications. Now that I’m recovered from my pneumonia, I’ll get more active and hope this will help.
Again, thank you for the links and your reply.
