Neuropathy Problems on Abraxane
Sorry I have to repost I originally posted on Nicola's post on update on Lapatinib clinical trial by mistake. Thanks to Al, Lolly and Steph N. for responding.
I have been on Abraxane since April 2005 and have neuropathy on hands and fingers and now on bottoms of feet. Mostly numbness not pain. Neuropathy has been getting increasingly worse so my onc had lowered the dose of Abraxane by 15% and has perscibed a drug called Neurontin for the neuropathy. Is anyone on this drug? What are the side effects and does it work? Any other remedies for neuropathy? Thanks, Hope
