Neuropathy moving from feet to legs
I have neuropathy in my hands and feet from three sessions of chemo I had about three years ago now. I have a lot of pins and needles in both my hands and feet but no pain which is a blessing I guess. These pins and needles are none the less annoying. I drop a lot of things and am unable to open things without help. I live by myself and have had to formulate my own ways to do so many different things. I am now experiencing these pins and needles climbing up my legs and that worries me. Has anyone else experienced this? If so have they stopped there or is it possible for them to go else where in my body?

Try moisturiser on your hands. Helps me.
Thank you for the reply. Yes, it certainly helps! I use it a lot!
Thanks. I do the best I can to keep a good diet and rest.
Thanks for providing me with info on the nerve balm. I have tried to purchase it here in Canada but the store that carries it has none in stock at any of their locations. I won't give up on trying to find it though. This burning feeling in the feet all the time really gets to be debilitating.
I was also given this site for it, http://www.papaandbarkley.com. Perhaps you could find something here. I’m not sure about Canadian shipping however. Wishing you all the best.
Hi try acupuncture, it has helped me. Also go on you tube and type binaural beats Good Vibes for nerve regeneration. One video that helps a lot is titled Miracle Nerve Regeneration:Repair Nerve Damage:Cell Regeneration:Pain Relief Binaural beats by Good Vibes it's #GV065. It's sound therapy that helps me and many others with their symptoms. If it doesn't work the first time give it a chance or try other videos. Listen for at least a half an hour or twenty minutes on a lower volume and try it without the headphones and have your body or affected body parts near the speaker so the vibrations can work. Also visualize yourself well all ready and feel the emotions that would bring. Have hope and take care.
They don't ship to Canada, and I think even if they did, there would be hassles at the border and high fees. I would prefer if I could purchase it here. Thanks so much for your good wishes. The same to you.
I have tried just a few acupunctures but didn't do anything. It is quite costly and our medical plan doesn't cover it. I'll look into the videos.
Thank you for the reply! I kind of thought this would be the case.
Acupuncture did not work for me either. In fact, the doctor told me not to bother coming anymore.
