It's starting up, the dreaded peripheral neuropathy. i could cry if I had the energy left.
Anyone know a good acupuncturist in SW London or Surrey?
Or other advice also welcome. Thanks.
Ask to see a neurologist.....they will test for definitive nerve damage and also look for deficiences such as B12, 6 , zinc . There are remedies for all of this but it's 'trial and error' and it did take time plus I had to accept that I might need pain killers during flare ups. I tried acupuncture during chemo when my feet were at their worst but the acupuncturist sent my husband to the pharmacy to buy homeopathic oils. Unfortunately neither of these resulted in an improvement but an operation and pain management has.....
I hope things improve for you soon.
