WHAT ??? never heard of this.
I have had Sensorial Axonal Pheriphial Neuropathy since the mid 90's but it is certainly unrelated to my cancer that was DX's Jan 5 2009

So what neuropathy problem are you talking about?
I'm seriously interested in knowing,

I developed peripheral neuropathy in my feet and lower legs 4 years ago after surgery to remove the rt middle section of my right lung and had 4 prophylactic chemo treatments after. I ended up falling up my stone front porch and losing a tooth and breaking my glasses. I was rediagnosed and went through chemo and radiation from Aug - Oct '2008. I'm grateful that it hasn't touched my hands.

I'm glad your our hands remain OK.
Well it's true I'm not capable of standing without a walker now.... and of course the PN is worse.. never condisdered it cuz my entire body caved in to exhustion or weakness from treatments of one kind or another.. but YOU ARE RIGHT.
