Hang in there to Oldbat. I am 38 and is is bad shape because of my alcohol abuse. i drank on the heavy side for 5 years and now have muscle wasting and weakness all over my body and is very fatigued and weak now so bummer. Does anyone have something simiar to me or know someone with advanced nerve damage from drinking? it would be nice to form a support group. But anyways Oldbat just keep away from the drinking and maybe take some b vitamins and try to stay positive.
