Guten Tag! Aloha! Hola! Hej! ..........

to everyone (& if I've not included 'your' greeting, apologies, I've never been good @ languages)

I only found NeuroTalk recently & am looking forward to wandering around its highways & byways. I guess like others before me I hope to discover a few 'tricks' & ideas to make life a bit easier – ever the optimist!

Firstly, I'd like to say a big Thank You to DocJohn for getting things started & to the many others (e.g. in the Community Support Team & members) who must be working hard to ensure that NeuroTalk functions well.

A little about me. I'm in England (approx. 3,500 miles north-east of New York) & - shock, horror – not a villain, despite Hollywood casting all 'Brits' as villains.

As far as I know, I've never met or seen anyone with my particular N.P. problems: numbness (no pain) in feet & lower legs. Hopefully, will get to know & learn from others in a similar situation or with background knowledge

Have tried Gabapentin – didn't work for me - & currently building-up dosage of Pregabalin (no help so far). The only thing that helps is raising my legs to a horizontal level & having a couple of glasses of nice wine (purely for medicinal purposes )

Wishing everyone success in their personal battles against N.P. & other illnesses

P.S. 'Super Mod' Lara suggested I also post my introduction in the PN Forum. Hope I got it right!
