WOW, we reported this to the RO 3 months out from finish of treatment and he said he had never heard of it!

At the time I thought it was either code for "don't bother me with the side effects - thank your lucky stars the treatment worked" or that it was a cisplatin side effect which the RO knows nothing about.

Anyone have any idea how long it takes to ease off (if it ever does)?

Alex describes it as a shock that comes out the bottom of his feet when he jolts his body (eg steps off a kerb). He also reports it is not as bad as this time last year but he has numbness in the balls of his feet.
