Tomorrow is the biopsy! The biggie I think will be the auntomic testing.

Anyway, thanks for the stickies on how neuropathies do improve. It helped me tonight

It's real easy to scare oneself when reading online. Post here often when you're feeling that fear. It really does help to know there are people here, real live people, that know exactly where you're at and what you're going through.

And even better, there's real help here too. Lottsa of experience from many kind and compassionate people.
