My foot has recovered enough to walk, but with abnormal gait, still falling sometimes. I am all alone, can't seem to get help very fast, and worried this is going to affect internal systems and shut down my organs at some point. I am alone and terrified. Do not want to die this way. Any help? Yes, I drink, while I have cut down a lot, I'm afraid I haven't been able to stop completely. I have also been using Kratom for pain, but have cut that by half as well. I know you will tell me I have to STOP, and I am trying, but I am afraid it is too late.

Hi again Rebecca,
I hope that when you contact your doctor on Monday that you are able to get an urgent appointment. I'm sorry you have to wait so long is all.
If you think that your nerve pain has been caused or made worse by drinking, I would suggest that you check out this thread that I'll post below. There are many very courageous people who can tell you that with time you can recover a lot. There is also a lot of invaluable information throughout the thread regarding supplements and treatments that may be of help to you right now.

PN Tips, Resources, Supplements and Other Treatments sub-forum
take care there.
