As for the first, I’ll go way out on the limb, and state emphatically ‘In no case does any form of Chemo reverse nerve damage.’

As for the second, let me share what ‘they’ told me at Chicago during my evaluation for STC . It goes something like this, “[I]..you will likely never recover the muscles already lost to severe atrophy. But, you can expect to slow or stop deterioration in those muscle groups not yet severely affected.[/I]” Recall subject to my own brain fog….
