I was diagnosed with Peripheral Neuropathy 2 years ago but I've had it for several years.
I received Oxaliplatin for Colon cancer 10 years ago and the outcome was a cure for the cancer but almost disabling Peripherial Neuropathy that seems to be getting worse especially after 3 bouts with Covid. I assumed there were no medicines that could help the neuropathy.
I just read about Amyvuttra that could help with neuropathy. Has anyone tried it?

Hi @angielewis1959, I haven’t seen any posts where members have mentioned trying Amyvuttra but @steeldove posted some research information on the drug here - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/717559/. It looks like the FDA approval was specifically for the treatment of the polyneuropathy associated with hereditary transthyretin-mediated (hATTR) amyloidosis in adults.
