Hi there. I have been following the thread and am interested that your doctors have attributed PN to hypothyroidism. Since getting PN after chemo I take 150mg of oroxin every Mon, Wed and Fri then 100 mg every other day. I take 100mcg of Selenium twice daily and upped my dose of vitamin D all thanks to my endocrinologist. I had my thyroid removed in 2004 and my current thyroid readings are the most normal they''ve ever been. My PN is improving with swelling reduced in my feet and toes. I see my endocronologist again in May for another review. Will definitely post again.
Cheers
Liz
