Re: What Can We do to Prevent and Treat Chemo Induced Neuropathy?

I also did a B complex vitamin "supreme stress B"
thiamin 100mg
riboflavin 100mg
niacin 100mg
B6 100mg
folic acid 400 mcg
B12 1000mcg
biotin100mg
pantothenic acid 100mg
inasital 25
choline 25mg

I took this with My oncologist's blessing. Minimal neuropathy during chemo all reversed after completion.
Good luck

We gain strength, courage, and confidence by each experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face. The danger lies in refusing to face the fear, not in daring to come to grips with it. We must do that which we think we cannot do. -Eleanor Roosevelt
