    I don't know
    I haven't had this Pat. I didn't have chemo, but, I had rads. When do you see your doctor? If not soon, you might want to call him. Sorry about this.

    I don't know what it might be. Hoping that you get some relief soon.

    Plantar Fascitis?
    It might be Plantar Fascitis. I had it after having Jake so when I sat too long or before getting out of bed in the morning I would stretch my feet and then put ice on the bottom of my feet.

    I would check with your doctor or see a podiatrist.

    Hugs,

    Maybe plantar fascitis
    I've also had problems with plantar fascitis (way before cancer treatment, so completely unrelated), and it's similar to what you're describing, Pat. Definitely check with your doctor -- if that's the problem, there are some simple stretches they can show you that have worked really well for me.
