The myth of "it goes away"
Many people are told their neuropathy will fade once chemotherapy ends. For some it does. For others it does not — and that gap between expectation and experience is one of the hardest parts of CIPN.
Why nerves take time
Peripheral nerves regenerate slowly — about a millimeter a day in ideal conditions. Add accumulated damage to myelin and mitochondria, ongoing low-grade inflammation, and individual variation in how nerves recover, and persistence becomes easier to understand.
Supporting recovery
Recovery is rarely instant, but it is meaningful when it comes. Consistent, science-informed support — covering myelin building blocks, energy, and inflammatory balance — gives nerves a better environment in which to repair.
