Hi Tarnya,
Sorry to hear you are having such a hard time with neuropathy ..its a pain! I was taken off chemo for the same reason, which pushed out my treatment and holiday !!!! plans. I was not happy! Having said that, the weekly treatment was much better and did allow improvement to the feeling in my fingers. Eight months post treatment I have numb toes only, so while it has been slow, there has been improvement. Just make sure you adjust to everyday life, like holding onto a rail if using stairs and being mindful about what you do .. I am sure that it won't be long before you see an improvement.
