Two levels one is right medical treatment and plenty here can be wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy more qualified than me. Second is partners understanding, I have whole nerve thing but several years ago I developed a balance condition with 24/7 tinnitus. Wife couldnt understand what tinnitus meant as a condition so I played a sound similar to what I hear thru stereo anf asked her to do her social media thing and turn the sound off if its debilitating she lasted 7 mins saying how do you cope. Your partner needs to understand what your condition means in terms he can understand so if itd like dead leg then pain as it wakes ask him to sit on leg then experience or if you can think of something less painful for him. Unfortunately many peoples empathy often only applies to what they can see, often if unable to see they revert to the buck up attitude,
