Neuropothy pain getting worse! Does it get better?

[Alice]

I finished chemo 8/27/05 4 A/C 3 carbo/ taxol/ herceptin. I have been experiencing leg pain ever since starting the taxol.My onc up until now thought it was from the taxol as it is a common side effect.In the past 2 to 3 weeks it has gotten increasingly worse to the point of beeing unbearable and waking me up nightly. When I was at the point of getting only 2 to 4 hours sleep a night and the pain continuing to worsen with the max amount of vicodin I insisted there must be something else that could help.
My onc put me on a nerve med nurontin. It seems to be helping. This would indicate my neuropothy is getting worse.Has anyone had neuropothy worsen so long after ending chemo?I am wondering if I should go to a nurologist or just try to wait it out.Does anyone know how long it takes to get better if at all?
Any info or suggestions are appreciated.(sorry about the spelling)
Thanks a bunch, Alice
