Thanks Mark. I am at the beginning of this journey with PN, and I just do not know what to think. Can it really have been the Hydralazine I ask myself? The doctors act like no way. Then I ask myself could it be my upper spine and neck of which I have trouble with? Then again, I have symptoms in my face and I don't know if neck and back problems could send signals there. My appointment at the university hospital isn't for two weeks, so I want to be ready and ask for these tests. How wonderful it would be to know the cause and hope that improvement can follow...

Sorry to ramble....

And Hope re "So is it a fact that when it is proven that a drug did cause ones neuropathy, it can in some cases be reversed, or improved, or at the very least stop the progression?"

The answer to the above is yes. Progression can stop definitely....he said the symptoms can least a year or more, and I might just go numb (my wife would already say I am,but that is a different story). He said I should see improvement....
