I've given up on doctors and pain meds and am wondering if there is anything that goes hand-in-hand with SFN (and Graves) that might cause this. I'm at my wits end and don't know where else to turn.
Thanks

Yes, exercise makes mine worse. Lying down makes mine worse. Sorry that
it is this way.
Some yoga has helped me the tiniest bit.
Walking in a warm pool also helps.
If I exercise like I did prior to my symptoms I pay heavily for it.
This all is such a challenging paradox.
