@lilliejane2, I'm tagging fellow members like @lfitz @helenar @lvtexas @luciad @davidtd @slosammie @markymarkfl who have experience with gemcitabine and abraxane. You might also be interested in this related discussion:

Lillijane, is the nerve pain focused on your hands and feet, as in peripheral neuropathy? Or is it different? How are you doing now?

Hello. Thank you for your support. The nerve pain has gotten better. When it comes it is everywhere, burning from the inside. I was taking gabapentin, which helped alot, as well as herbs that have helped me with lyme related issues in the past. Recently have been taking Holy Basil extract, which I have read has wonderful immune boosting powers. I feel like it has definitely improved my situation. I'm not sure, but I think the burning pain is because of a lyme confection called Bartonella, which I have had in the past, and has resurfaced.
Thank you so much for responding to my
question. I am grateful for help, and grateful to be able to help when I can.
