that you look at the top of this forum at the wealth of info on neuropathy sites called "Important Information/Stickies" . Be sure to check out the Nat. Inst. Health/National Cancer Institute, as some research is being done there...tho what's available to us patients is still a bit sparse.

The majority of this info addresses neuropathies in general and you will find that there are ever so many types and causes. Probably your neuropathy is due to the toxic aspects of chemo and you are not alone.

I've met many folks who have acquired neuropathy as a result of chemo and the majority of them see a neurologist who specialize in PN for treatments. I would ask your ocon. about a referral or if you are in a PPO plan, make an appointment yourself...but get your records [background, history, treatments, blood work, tests, films etc.] ready to bring to the neuro.

I hope this all helps, and don't feel afraid to ask questions. Lots here will tell you that I've asked my own share of them. - j
