Hi there, I was wondering if anyone had experience with needling for post-chemo neuropathy. My coworker has a patient who is interested in trying needling for symptoms in her feet, as it has been affecting her gait and balance. However, I know patients with a history of cancer are not always candidates for needling, so I was looking for any insight here. Thanks!
Jessica-
this is not my area of expertise at all so I am going to defer on this answer. Have you done a lit review yet on this? I would proceed with extreme caution, do a lit review, know blood markers and speak to the doc who has way more experience than I. I am sorry I am not of much help here. Hoping on of our colleagues jumps in here who has more experience with this population and diagnosis.
All the best-
Sue
