Hi,
Just wondering if many of you ladies have suffered with this? I am 12 month's post my second lot of chemotherapy (I had a recurrance 18mths after my 1st diagnosis). I have really bad pain under the ball of my foot which is much worse when I stand for long times. It feels like there is a marble under my foot. Has anyone had experience with this and have any tips for me. Many thanks.

Hi Mum2jj
Hi there I have not had chemo but I have suffered from "the marble in the foot" problem and as with you it is on the ball of my right foot, I found I couldn't walk anywhere without something on my feet, the sole of my foot where it felt like I had a marble had dried hard dry skin around it, after a visit to a podiatrist I found that I had a cliuster of corns it that one spot. The podiatrist debrieded the spot and I could walk with realitive ease, however I debried the spot twice a month mysef to keep the skin back ( I couldn't afford $60 each visit) not with all the other bills and not working as much. Also a "Planters wart" was something I though it could be .......podiatrist said no it's corns. Get one to check it out for you. Hope this helps good luck Georgie
