Hi Y'all.

I just wanted to check in and how things are going. The last two weeks my feet have become much number, but a painful, gnawing numbness. I am using a cane now. I probably should have used it awhile ago, but I was in denial that I needed one. In addition to the Gabapentin, the doctor put my on 75mg of Lyrica. I find I am dropping things and figure it is the meds. But the balance issue could be causing it also. The doctor said my recent labs were all out of the Diabetic range. I probably could not do it without the meds, but that is my goal. My doctor told me the my body will adjust to the pain. I should ask him: Just when will that kick in? I have gone through a lot of supplements and specialists and I now I wonder if I should continue these since they don't seem to be having any positive effect. Music, comedy and my cat helps me cope.
