Hi Ron,
I certainly hope my PN symptoms (I think of symptoms rather than defining by pain) are not related to my spine. The MRI did not detect any nerve impingement and the physical examination by the neurosurgeon in June i.e. legs being manipulated and raised, produced no pain. Also my symptoms are now spread to my hands and arms. Occasionally shoulder, neck and face. I would of thought if symptoms are related to L5/S1 injury, it would only occur to the lower extremities, not all over my body including hands and face etc. I am really praying these are not stemming from my lumbar spine....I am really terrified of any spinal involvement!

I have just placed order with Iherb for B12 and Amazon for Morton Epsom Lotion (expensive postage to Australia). I am seeing my GP tomorrow, hopefully I can get a straight answer from her whether she has other experience from other patients or her honest assessment (she tend to be very conservative in her answers). Thanks again. Yu Ping
