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! |
Welcome! I like your sense of humor! I've always thought the "Brits" have some of the best comedy shows on TV. As to your question, I don't have that particular symptom but I am sure there are some on this board that do and I know I have seen it under symptoms of PN. You are lucky you can drink wine. For many of us it triggers our symptoms.
