Default Chart showing types of Chemo Nerve Damage

For CIPNers,

Here is an easy to under pictorial of how different types of chemo attacks different parts of the nerve pathway ( as much as they know), that may be useful to some:

For those of us on taxanes, or combination therapies, it impacts about every aspect of the pathway.

I had a few different top oncologists, and I found it discouraging when they all starting asking me questions like "how is Diabetic PN different from Chemo PN?" and to send them studies and info I come across to help them learn.
