I have idiopathic Neuropathy, Degenerative arthritis and know what your going through. Mine has gotten worse in the past 3 months. Right now, unfortunatly in Florida, there is not a whole lot that can be done (so I'm told).
My hips, legs and feet are almost completely numb, have the pins and needles tingling feeling in them witch can be extremely painful at times, and my legs also feel as if they are going to give out at any moment. It would be nice to find a doctor that gives a rats butt and would actually try and fix things right rather than one piece at a time.

It comes and goes. I feel I have a mouse running up and down my legs. I am sick of the doctors telling me it stress. Does anyone feel a weakness throughout their limbs, I am also getting sharp pains in my arms legs(for only a second). I was in perfect health on year ago. I swear I got this from an injury stretching for plantar fasciitis. The neuro does not think that is the case. I overstretched last year, and had terrible pain in my arches for 2 months. Does this make sense, does anyone have any of these symptoms, I am really scared. I feel that this diagnoses is so open ended, there is such a variety of symptoms, and no one really knows, Its hard to sleep because I am so much anxiety any help would be appreciated, Lynn
