Jennififty

Hello Jennififty, I had some nerve numbness issues but it returned to normal after my chemo treatment ended, but my chemo was minimal as I only have a couple treatments of each before realizing they were not working, so after two failed Chemos, I was offered CAR-T immunotherapy and it fixed me for about 3 years now. So might ask about CAR-T. Some places don’t offer it, so might have to go to a teaching school to get it. Wishing you the best. Steve

Hi Jennififty - Ouch, R-Epoch. I did that one as well. No fun.
Yes, strength and dexterity does return - slowly.
I was 75 when I went through the treatment so it might return more quickly for you.
Please try to keep up with some form of physical activity, it is not easy but it definitely helps.
Keeping you in my thoughts and cheering you on.
