Re: Neuropathy?
I developed neuropathy in my feet/toes. My onc stopped my TC at that point(after 4 doses) and just went with the Herception from then on. She was concerned I might have lasting effects. And now, a few years later, I still have some symptoms/ numbness if I get tired or have been on my feet a lot It was also recommended by my onc that I take Glucosamine (an amino acid supplement that is dissolved into a drink) while on chemo
Best to discuss this with your oncologist
Keep the faith
