I feel for you and the position you have found yourself in…I am a non diabetic who is experiencing neuropathy in my fingers and feet after starting chemotherapy …am trying to learn all I can while in the beginning stages hoping to avoid it taking over and negatively affecting my future quality of life…my dr. advised starting alpha lipoid acid 600mg X 2…and while it simmered down right away…it did not go away…next chemo in 1 week and fearing permanent nerve damage…
