Default Chemo Neuropathy

I have peripheral neuropathy due to taxotere and an aromatase inhibitor according to my oncologist. I have been embarrassed about the constant pain since my doc poo pood the situation at first. It took a year before I saw a neurologist who confirmed the small nerve pain.
After surviving breast cancer and all that that entails, I cannot understand why I felt ashamed to admit that my hands and feet buzz with pain constantly. I am taking Lyrica. I also juice green vegetables.
Any other suggestions?
