Same thing happened to me but not as bad. From the 1st my body went crazy and by the 3rd I said I don't think I can take it. Nurse suggested stop the benadryl. It worked and I could finish the next 9 session but 2 years later left with numb toes take presumption no relief. Fallen 3 times 9 stitches in head and other injuries.

I can relate. I had Carboplatin/Paclitaxel treatment and still deal with side effects. CIPN is terrible. Numbness, sharp shooting pain, trouble walking at times.. people think that I should be ok now, it's been a couple years... nope... I'd love to find a better way to treat it... Gabapentin does not do it... I wish they could have one day of these symptoms so they know what we are going through... you can't relate until you've been in the chair... just saying..
