Accepted Answer

: Calm down. Since you are fairly young and it’s happening on one side, have you considered the possibility that your shoes are causing an irritation to the nerve on top of your left foot. This is actually a very common problem. There is a bony prominence on the top of your foot in which a nerve runs across and commonly irritated. If you tap on the top of the foot it will send a signal to your toes

Question 8

my husband had tumor removed from foot (nscl). he received radiation on foot and brain and chemo last mri showed suspected reoccurrence what options?

Accepted Answer

Where at?: Where is the suspected reoccurence? Is it in the brain? Or somewhere else?If confirmed, chemotherapy would likely be the case . Nsclc is a very general term. There are different types of lung cancer under the umbrella of nsclc. Nowadays, treatment is personalized and would depend on the molecular profiling of the cancer. You need to make sure that you know about this. Discuss w/ oncologist.

Question 9

how likely is occasional tingling in 1 foot to be caused by brain tumor? 33yo-grandma has foot neuropothy.i have occasional headaches,no hist of tumor

Accepted Answer

Rare unless diagnose: d by MRI/CT scan. Not sure why you feel you might have a brain tumor based on foot neuropathy, where more common causes could be diabetes, poor circulation, nerve damage in the spinal cord, or things other than a brain tumor. If your neurologist says you are cleared, you have to have some trust in her/his diagnosis &amp; then continue to follow up, or have more tests done (EMG results?)Look elsewhere.

Question 10

i had a tumor removed from my upper spine wrapped in spinal cord now i'm left numb and tingling on the whole left side of my body,right foot help!

Accepted Answer

Nerves heal slowly: If the tumor was wrapped around the nerve, the it required careful manipulation to remove the tumor.  The nerve maybe irritated for sometimes up to 6 to 12 months.  Check with your surgeon, but this may improve slowly over time
