My hubby had a full left lung removed followed by 4 cycles of chemo. He has cold feet and what he can only discribe as pins and needles/pain, he was told that it was nerve damage due to the chemo. But speak to you specialist nurse. My hubby also has times were he gets very shaky, but we found that it was his blood sugars that would drop quickly, he now eats inbetween meals a specially if he is going out anywhere, he has even a slice of toast with jam on. But like I said earlier, speak to your cancer nurse specialist.

Best wishes

Hi there,

I would recommend that you make an appointment with your GP and discuss your concerns. It is important that you seek advice from a health professional rather than worry on your own. Hopefully they can find out what is causing these symptoms, or refer you to the correct department for follow up.
