Hi @sueb4bs, different people experience different levels of neuropathy with FOLFOX. For some people it is temporary, for others it is long term or even permanent. Because my dad had type 2 diabetes, they monitored his neuropathy symptoms closely and reduced the oxaliplatin amount. Oxaliplatin is known for causing neuropathy.

This js not esp helpful . I know, as most pts with colorectal ca know, that neuropathy is challenging. Most docs tell you this. They also counsel that there is no tx for CINP.
I have no co-morbidities or chronic illness of any kind.
