Chemotherapy-induced neuropathy: What helps get rid of it?
I finished chemo April of 2022
I have neuropathy in my fingers and feet. It doesn’t seem to be going away. What are treatments I can do to help get rid of it.

I am a 75 year old male who never had peripheral neuropathy until undergoing chemotherapy. I turned to Acupuncture to treat my peripheral neuropathy and my body has been responding wonderfully to these treatments. I started acupuncture treatments mid-July 2024 and have been receiving 2 to 3 acupuncture treatments weekly since.
Perhaps, and hopefully, acupuncture treatments may be worth a try.
Thanks for sharing. Acupuncture is also a wonderful way to improve circulation and energy.
I use it for mouth sores with both preventive and curative effect. Best also using a multivitamin daily to prevent the sores; not sure what in that helps, but it does!
Thank you for this info. Have an appointment this week to see if acupuncture will help me
Hope acupuncture works for you.
It works wonderfully! I would be lost without it.
I have neuropathy from 6 cycles of Taclitaxel for angio sarcoma. My last CT scan was clear, but the neuropothy persists , even getting worse, in my hands and fingers, feet and toes, and seems to be creeping up my leg as well.
I noticed a paper on japanese Goshajinkigan has anyone tried this?
I have chemo-induced peripheral neuropathy as well. I have been having wonderful success using regular manual, as well as electro-, acupuncture not only to control but to reduce my periheral neuropathy. Perhaps you might want to investigate this option.
