Hi everyone, I hope everyone is safe during this awful weather
I have been told in my latest review that I have Stage 1 peripheral neuropathy. Bit of a blow as having read up it means I have to tell DVLA as I shouldn’t drive. All treatments and appointments are an hour away by car, longer by bus. No train service. At present it’s my toes only that are cold. I get severe nerve pain in the days after carboplatin and paclitaxel then it fades. Anyone else had to deal with this.?
Also if you have Peripheral neuropathy what treatment are you having?
my chemo was my last one of six, and I’m not sure what my oncologist is going to say on the 30th Nov, however he did say we would look at future options which I suspect will include more of the same, I.E. carbo and paclitaxel. I’m stage 4a since Aug 2021, with spread to peritoneum and since June progression to liver and spleen.
Was on Niraparib for a year but it stopping working in June 2023. The latest chemo seems to have worked, it’s just left me with Peripheral neuropathy.
Any advice at all?
