same old

Not much change in anything to report. Maybe a little less neuropathy, but seemingly plateaued on that score. Continuing to ride the exer-cycle, while the head factors keep screaming that it is so hard, and why do we have to do this, etc., etc., ad nauseum.  I swear it is more a case of getting rid of the head factors than anything else. Maybe a bit less giving out of knees and hips. Still very tired and daily naps occurring. (I must remember that to experience any conditioning effect at all will require six weeks.)

One new bit. In a spate of socializing this week--a very nice spate, mind you--I find that several of my closest friends who are also my age (or more) experience some neuropathy, typically of the feet. They are normally healthy for their ages, working out and generally taking reasonable care of their bodies. So my push into it via the chemo man may not be totally reversible, if, indeed, it is common for old men to develop this condition as a function of "normal" aging. Still, I don't have to like it.
