Hi Tracy, I didn't realise chemo caused nerve pain. I contacted shingles during chemo and was put on lyrica for the nerve pain shingles caused. Which did send me off the planet! We have headed away in our caravan to Nambucca heads and the pain through my shoulder and down my arm started up. I happened to have a script for Endep 10, so decided to try it. And it has helped heaps. I think it is also to help you sleep, which I really don't need.
As one of the girls said we all act differently to medication so it may not help you, but for me it worked.
Also my surgeon suggested vit B12 for nerve damage which has occurred in my arm. I have been left with two numb fingers. Maybe, just maybe the feeling will come back in 12-18 months.
Im so excited to be able to get away. We plan to stay here for a month.
Hope you find help, keep warm.
