I would encourage you to take a bit of time and read all of the'stickies', the sites at the top of this forum page. They are chock full of information about PN and about research, diagnosis and living with it.

I'd also encourage you to read as many prior posts and threads so youget a feel for what is discussed here and who all discusses what.

I am looking forward to hearing your story as you learn all of ours! - j
