Questioncan you help with nueropathy caused by chemo-----for cancer of the lung----its in the toes and hands on both sides====please advise---have medicare blue---hmo---do you take it?
AnswerHello Ido,
You would have to go through a exam first to determine if the nuerological deficit is caused by a actual impingement of the nerve or a side effect of the chemotherapy. You may benefit from chiropractic care, keeping the joints, muscles, and nervous system healthy is always beneficial. Extra antioxidants through vegi's or supplements will also help detoxify the side effects of chemo.
Hope everything goes well,
Dr. Brendon O'Brien D.C.
