Hi Missy,
I am also a very new member, and from what I see everyone is very helpful. I'm so sorry you're going through this, and with both feet has to be horrible!
Sounds like you are working with a great doctor. I'm also looking into the alpha lapoic acid and acetyl l carnitine.
Good luck with dealing with this. I have to admit though, your original post has me concerned about the ability to continue much longer. I hope that I am someone who can work through the pain (and side effects of the medications).
Take care,
Jes
