It is normal to still have side effects of chemo for quite sometime afterwards... and it is still early days for you.

I hope things will improve soon....Best wishes love x G x

Hi kaza 1

I finished my chemo in May of this year and like you suffered a lot with pain in my legs and feet, I am still having these symptoms and agree with Gwyn that it can take a lot of time before these symptoms abate, I was told by my Gp that it can take up to 2 years for the chemo to fully leave your body, hope this helps and you wont stress to much about these symptoms. Love Pam x
