neuropathy???

Thursday, April 30th, 2009

I have severe neuropathy due to chemotherapy in my feet. My Dr gave me some meds however they made me sick.

My mother is a diabetic and told me to go by diabetic socks. Which has really helped.

However I have the pins and needles still. When I run I feel like my feet are flip flops and the bottoms are going to fall off. I still continue to run because I have a three year old daughter and I love playing with her whether it puts me in pain or not !!!!

has anyone had this similiar problem ( not asking cancer but neuropathy ) and found a better way to deal with it ???

thanks heather

Aside from swimming, what are the best exercises for a person with plantar fasciitis?

The treadmill aggravates it as does normal walking. I know swimming is good, but what other exercises can be done to help keep me in shape with minimal risk of re aggravating the foot.
Thank you.

Pain associated with getting a bunion removed and getting stitches taken out? Please help?

Wednesday, April 29th, 2009

Alright last week I got the bunion on my right foot removed and this morning I got my stitches out and I was told I could take showers normally and my foot would be ok getting wet. I got the stitches out around 9:30 this morning and then I took a shower around 4:00. When I got in the shower my stomach immediatly started hurting. And when I put my foot down the pain was definitely intensified. After a few minutes I couldn't take it anymore, I just washed my hair and immediatly got out. I thought I was going to throw up. Then I was sitting in bed and slept for four hours.

Does anyone know why this all may have I happened? =/
Thanks in advance.
