I have neuropathy from chemo and when I get into the shower or tub, my feet and toes go completely numb.
I just got the official diagnosis this week! I had AC followed by Taxol an finished up 11/20/13. My Onc prescribed Gabapentin (generic Neurontin) and I just started taking it Monday. It's making me dizzy but I am hopeful that soon subsides. The nurse did tell me it was a good thing I called to report my symptoms because it doesn't go away or get better without treatment. Good luck to you!
I have been dealing with this for almost 2 years now....it's hard! Try taking vitamin B12 pills and also ask your doc about meds call Neurontin. The combination has helped a great deal...Still waiting the numbing to go! Good luck
I had the same exact treatment. The numbing eventually went away.
Yes! I has my last chemo June 24. My has neuropathy has gotten so much worse. It is now almost impossible for me tot so my job.
