When chemotherapy damages peripheral nerves, it is called chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy, or CIPN. Symptoms of CIPN can vary from sensation changes and pain or numbness to weakness in the hands and feet that impact how you perform your daily activities. In the upcoming presentation we will discuss the reasons behind these changes, strategies you can use to improve symptoms, and when to seek out additional assistance.
Registration is required and a Zoom link will be sent.
