Start, Stop, and Restart Propecia

I developed nerve pain and my doctor thought it might be related to Propecia. So with the advice of my doctor, I stopped the Propecia. Naturally, my thinning has progressed though after I stopped it, so now I am considering starting it again if my doctor approves. I am going to speak with him first of course, but, after stopping taking the medication for the past 5 months after taking the medication for 1 year before that, what I want to know is will it still be effective if i restart it? Your response would be extremely appreciated. Thank you for your time.

I am unaware of peripheral neuropathy being a known side effect of Propecia. Your response on restarting it will not be as good as when you originally started it, but it should still have value. Only time will tell.
