Good morning aggie :)
Well it's morning here in GA anyway  And a cold morning....about 24 degrees out there and will be 15 degrees in the morning. On mornings like this I'm thankful that I don't work...lol
It's been 9 1/2 months since the SFN symptoms started and I'm pretty much the same now as I was then. It is in my legs and one of my upper arms but I'm not going to ever stop trying to find something that works for me. I've come to realize it just takes time. I started on gaba and now he's added Cymbalta as I mentioned above.....he'll keep increasing it until it helps or makes me crazy.....I'm assuming if the Cymbalta doesn't work he'll take me off that and try Lyrica. I will probably be at Emory by that time. My onco told me to keep seeing my neuro until I could get in to Emory so that is what I'm doing.
I did a lot of moving around this past weekend (my mom built an addition on to our home and we're working on getting her moved in) and now I'm paying for it. The worst is the outside of my left foot....always slightly swollen and when I am on it too much it swells worse and the pain is unbearable. I've had it x-ray'd and seen a ortho who said it was tendinitis......I just think it has to do with my SFN.
My balance is ok but I walk very slowly and watch my feet most of the time. I walk like a 100 year old....actually they may do better than me !
Okie Dokie......y'alls turn to reply.
