update on onc appt. about my neuropathy
Thank you to all who replied with advice.
My onc. is concerned that the neuropathy has come on so quickly since I had only had 3 doses (1 cycle). He is taking a wait and see approach. If I begin to lose my ability to do fine motor skills he will give me a break if I want, but would be reducing my dosage either way.
I'm glad he didn't say I had to stop the Navelbine, yet I sure don't want to end up with severe problems in my hands. It feels a wee bit like playing with fire since mose neuropathy resolves when drugs are stopped, but not all.
Thanks All!!
Joyce
