Hello @user_ch1df4426, when you have peripheral neuropathy it's really important to take care of your feet because you can't feel them. You probably already know this but just in case there is more information on the following Mayo Clinic page:
http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/diabetes/expert-blog/peripheral-neuropathy/bgp-20056528

I wear socks during the day and at night which helps if I step on something that injures the foot...then I can tell it by the socks. Also, I try to wear shoes that have plenty of toe room which seems to help. Hoping others can jump in if they have some stories to share.

While I don't have chemo induced neuropathy and I do have small fiber peripheral neuropathy with no pain, only the numbness. I take some over the counter natural supplements and vitamins that have helped me. I found it in a neuropathy support group on Facebook. Others in the group that also had chemo induced neuropathy have shared that it has enabled them to get off pain medication once they had been on the supplements for a few months. When trying alternative treatments you should always have a discussion with your doctor first. You can read my story from an earlier post here:
