Peripheral Neuropathy ????
I suspect that I have peripheral neuropathy from the Cytoxan and or Taxotere--
Most my symptoms seem to be fading away with just a few popping up now and again--
However the last month, I started to notice that I am dropping things-like in the kitchen--AND I am having trouble opening jars--not just one or two--but almost every jar---it is crazy--I have a grip on it and turn it, but it doesnt open--I feel like I am in a bad movie---
Anyone else have this or know if it is related to the Peripheral Neuropathy?
Thanks and Good Night!!!
