My feet are numb in toes and tops of feet, no pain. Have had now for about 7 years but worse now, taking chemo pills for Multiple Myeloma. Numbers good I feel good but feet drive me crazy. I also have had bck pain for many years.DX with MM 2 years ago. What is good for my feet? Would message be good? I really do not to add a pill for this. What would be something to try besides a pill? Thank You

Hello @ancopau1998, Welcome to Connect. I can relate to your numbness as I also have numbness in my feet from small fiber peripheral neuropathy. Exercise and stretching can help. Here's an article that you may find helpful:

You mentioned you have Multiple Myeloma. I think you might find the following discussion helpful where you can meet members with MM and learn what they have shared.

Has your doctor offered any suggestions like physical therapy to try and help with your feet?
