My PM dr agrees the weather effects my SFN
I can tell when the bad weather is coming and it's miserable.
Along with the SFN I also have osteoarthritis. So it's a double whammy.
My neuro was pretty useless but he did go through the regular 3 meds for SFN and we found that 1,800 mg of gabapentin a day was helpful. He doesn't treat pain as he feels pain meds do not help with SFN. Boy was he wrong. He finally said my only option was PM. My PCP and foot/ankle dr said the same thing.
I've been going to a PM for a year and a half now. My ANA was negative.
Hope you find some relief fast !
