I am 51 and was diagnosed in August. Still adjusting to the supplements and pain has been reduced substantially by using D-3 and Super-B Complex. I did not want to take Lyrica when my Dr. asked because I feel that I take enough meds already. I have been disabled since 1993. I have CFIDS, Fibro Myalgia, A "bad heart", sciatica and a few other health issues. I actually thought that the neuropathy was Fibro Myalgia until the pain and numbness became overwhelming.
I am a poet and an artist. I am attempting to do some very basic yoga to help my body calm down. This is brand-new territory for me. I had only heard of this once before from a friend who is diabetic and suffers from it terribly. I guess I'd like to know if this is a wise approach to the neuropathy? I hope to meet others who can tell me what may be normal or notso. I realize that everyone is different, but felt that I could benefit from this forum when I am able to use my computer. I hope this isn't too much information and I Thank-You so much for being here!
