I have PN secondary to chemotherapy. I have been told by my physician, if the PN does not resolve within 5 years it’s not going too. The situation has been one of slow progression , although a recent bumper shot has made it much worse.

@wwenerowicz, I wouldn't give up hope of the PN going into remission. Here's some information you might find helpful.

"Does CIPN ever go away?
In most cases, CIPN will go away. It will depend on upon the dose, but usually the symptoms will dissipate over time. Sometimes it takes a few months after treatment. In some rare cases, it is permanent."
