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?

Welcome to NeuroTalk:

If you come and visit our PN forum (peripheral neuropathy) we have discussions on what may help chemo induced PN.

Just type in "chemo" to our search there and the posts discussing it will be listed.
