Neuropathy

8 years after chemo and rads for larynx cancer my neuropthy, which started in my feet about 3 months after has, over the years, gotten much worse, it has now travelled up both legs to my knees, sometimes making it difficult to walk. The calf muscles stiffen up and sometimes I cannot feel the floor. The good side is that it has left my hands and arms.

    Do you take anything for it?  One of my medications addresses the foot pain I started getting last year.  Duloxetine.  (Cymbalta)
