I have nerve damage from chemo too, also did taxol, along with taxetere 10 years ago. I had some pain in my left hand & arm during treatment that resolved within a few months after my treatment ended. A few months ago I developed lymphedema ( after 10 years) & soon after began experiencing nerve pain in my arm. My doc thought it was likely from the swelling ( it was in my elbow) compressing the ulnar nerve. I had an ekg - nerve compression test - was found not to be pinched, but found old nerve damage to my arm & hand & they surmised it was from the chemo.

I haven't gotten any answers on how long this might last, maybe indefinitely?? It's all new to me & very puzzling. The lymphedema just adds insult to injury - it's hard to juggle both & hard to know how one might affect the other. I'm finding it to be very painful & am seeing an occupational therapist & a lymphedema therapist, but can't say I've seen any improvement in the 3 months it's been going on.

Yeah, very little info out there about chemo induced nerve pain...
