Supplements to improve taxol peripheral neuropathy

A MyBCTeam Member asked a question 💭
Omaha, NE

Looking at supplements to improve taxol induced peripheral neuropathy. I've had alpha lipoic acid and Glutamine recommended to me. Has anyone had success with these? Or something else? Wearing compression socks and doing epsom salt baths currently. Finishing chemo next week and then can look at adding supplements.

The integrative nurse practitioner recommended that I take B6. I do feel like it helps.

I've had all those recommendations to me by a very good source. Tried all except the compression hose because my feet were too swollen to get them on. Also took B6. I think all those are helpful. But I'm the exception who got worse despite them. Close your eyes and skip my post if you notice it.
