Hi
I am curious to know what you do if you have peripheral neuropathy in the fingers. Mine seems to be getting worse after 6 cycles of ADC targetted therapy. Doctor has prescribed B12 and Pregabalin but neither seem to be doing much. Any other suggestions out there?
Thanks
Hi Snake65
Unfortunately I don’t think there is a lot that can be done. I have some neuropathy in both fingers and feet and my last treatment was in 2023. For me it got worse in the weeks after treatment but then stabilised. I do obvious things like keeping nails short, avoiding extreme heat and cold, keeping moisturised. Mine isn’t painful but the tingling is always there and I find picking up small things difficult.
