Thank you for connecting me with the articles on CIPN . I had a little bit of neuropathy on my and in my fingers while on CHEMO, which was almost 4years ago.
1.DoesCIPN occur several years after treatment, and continue to get worse?
2.since I have issues with auto immune problems already should ‘t The Dr’s be checking for other possible causes?
3.perhaps I missed it, and I didn’t understand some of the medical terms, but I didn’t see any specifics for middle ear balance not working at all. My eyes are working over time to try to provide balance.

I tried getting to see a local endocrinologist, but there is a year and a half wait. I have asked my dr to refer me to Mayo Rochester , so I am waiting to hear if I can get an appointment.
Thank you.

@spanning you ask some really good questions. I'm hoping others with personal experience with chemo induced PN can share suggestions or answer your questions. I did find an article from 2017 which talks about some of your questions.
