I have severe neuropathy since 2009, and was even paralyzed from the waist down, and could not walk for 10 months. In severe cases, it can effect the organs. I have optic ischemic neuropathy too in my left eye causing complete blindness in it, and almost the other. The neuropathy is my major complaint, and still causes 24/7 pain, numbness, loss of feeling, sensation, movement, muscle loss in the toes, feet, calf and hamstring, and fingers too. I can't drive, stand long or walk that far..a block or two. There severity of neuropathy..chemo induced.. there are 20 different types neuropathy, depends on the type of chemo given, the amount given, duration, frequency, and underlying Medical conditions or other medications that may contribute to netve damage...diabetes, alcoholism...most neuropathiex are resolved after time, but some can be permament.

There is not much really to be done for it, and each person is different as far as some therapies, medications, and vitamins. I used some prescriptions, which I did not like them since they are basically antidepressants or antiseizure medications. Docors rell e I'm better off without. Others have success with vitamin b6, glutamine powder. Accupuncture, PT...to name a few.
