I was just newly diagnosed with SFN. the 1st 1 1/2 I had mild bilateral heel pain that Increased last july to burning pain in the ball of my foot. So frustrating! Any info you have would be helpful. thanks
Debra, so sorry to hear about your distress. I wish I had something constructive to tell you. I've been off Lipitor now for 2 months and feel no different. Mrs. D. mentioned that after the long period of medication it would take awhile for things to change so we'll just have to see. I hope you get some relief!
