This book comprehensively examines chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), a common dose-limiting condition that negatively affects both the quality of life of cancer patients and disease outcomes. CIPN remains a challenging area for both clinical care and research, as there are multiple unresolved issues. Written by leading international experts, the book discusses the natural history of CIPN, the latest predictors of toxicity, instruments for evaluating symptoms, and prevention/therapeutic strategies, as well as patients’ experiences of this common clinical syndrome. Lastly it highlights avenues for future research to enhance our understanding of CIPN. Providing essential information on the management of CIPN and the latest research in the field, this book is a valuable resource for researchers and healthcare providers working with patients with various malignant diseases.

We discuss diabetic neuropathy, nutrient deficiencies, chemo- induced, autoimmune issues, medications, hereditary, toxicity, inflammation and their role in neuropathy.In the third section, Examination and Testing procedures are revealed including some tests that are not frequently recommended. We go into detail on labs that we recommend and how sometimes you have to search further to discover the true cause. The fourth section focuses on Treat The Person Not The Disease. We explain how gut health, food sensitivities, stress and inflammation all can play a critical role in not only causing the neuropathy but in creating some level of improvement.The final section emphasizes Treatment Options.
