This study is about using Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) to help people with early-stage breast cancer who have nerve problems from chemotherapy. Chemotherapy can cause peripheral neuropathy, which means feeling pain, tingling, or numbness in the hands or feet. TENS uses mild electric currents on the skin to help relieve these symptoms.
Participants will use TENS at home for 1 hour each day for 14 days. The study checks if people can stick with this routine and if it helps their symptoms. It also looks at other treatments they might be using and any changes to their chemotherapy because of side effects.
- Study involves daily 1-hour TENS sessions for 2 weeks.
- Participants must be undergoing chemotherapy with drugs like paclitaxel or docetaxel.
- Women must use birth control during the study if they can become pregnant.
This study is only for adults who can follow the study rules and have no conditions that could interfere with TENS. Participants should not have epilepsy, certain implants, or previous nerve issues. This is a chance to see if TENS can help with chemotherapy side effects.
