Neo40 for Neuropathy
HI, Stage IV "survivor" dealing with neuropathy following 12 rounds total of FOLFOXIRI that ended Mar 2025. Dealing with persistent neuropathy especially in my feet that actually seems to be getting worse (and now my left hand is acting up). I understand that neuropathy can persist for a couple years but am wondering if there is anything to help combat the side effect...and in particular if Neo40 by HumanN has proven helpful with anyone in a similar boat. My MIL was told by her oncologist to try this so I am considering. My oncologist says he has something only for the pain (and I have none) associated with neuropathy. Thanks in advance.

If it’s recommended by an oncologist it’s worth a try.
My oncologist and pcp have me on some vitamin supplements as well as a couple of medications to help with my neuropathy. These things help considerably.
The pain management guy was willing to add traditional opiate meds to the mix, but I’ve figured out that microdosing THC works without the opioid side effects.
