Neuropathy following pastille with carboplatin

  • I am sorry you have neuropathy  

    I also have it after being treated with Paclitaxel and NAB-Paclitaxel in subsequent years. I am not sure when you finished chemo but it does improve for many people. Mine has been stuck for more than 2 years so I think it’s permanent. I try to avoid extreme hot and cold, keep my finger and toe nails very short and always wear flat shoes, usually running shoes or walking shoes. When out on rough terrain I use poles to aid stability.
