Hello NancyKay,

I do not have what you have, but I have small fiber neuropathy caused by diabetes.. I was diagnosed with diabetes over 10 years ago and did not listen to my doctor, so I pretty much ate what I wanted and did what I wanted. Fast foward 10 years later and I have been diagnosed with PN. Of course now I have my sugars under control..... better late than ever I suppose. I have only had this horrible disease for about 6 months now, but let me tell you it's been hell for me and for my family.
I take 6, 300mg of Neurontin, 3, 200mg of tegratol. I have never taken this much medicine before in all my life and I am about to turn 41 in a few weeks.
My son is only 5 and I fear that this disease will consume me and I won't be able to have a normal family life with him or my husband. Anyways enough of me........ anytine you want to talk, just come on aboard. I have been here for less than a week and their are some wonderful people out here.

Take care,
Michele
