Neuropathy?

in Life After Breast Cancer Treatment: Now What?

Hello everyone,


Breast cancer 17mm discovered in November 2023, Her2+++, surgery in December 2023, 3 chemo ec then 12 taxols (finished in June 2024), 18 radiotherapy sessions and on Tamoxifene since August.

I still have neuropathy in my 2 feet and 2 fingers on each hand. It gets worse with the cold.
What bothers me are the strange sensations in my face, in both temples, both eyes and my forehead. It comes and goes, amplified by stress. It's like my muscles are being pulled, sometimes it feels like numbness. No facial paralysis. Just a sensation that drives me crazy.
I'm thinking it could be the taxol, because I've read about similar experiences... But I'm afraid... So here I am to exchange ideas...

Thanks in advance

S.
