Thanks MrsD. One thing I just hate is when I am in a lot of pain, then of course I get really upset. I may even start to cry, this of course causes more pain. It's like a vicious cycle, pain, crying, more pain, more crying.

Then the other night I went to my brother's house with other family members. I was laughing and having a good time, almost forgetting about the neuopathy. I could not help but notice a lower pain level. Of course this is not always a given, but it sure is nice.

I need more times like this, as my neuropathy has spread even more. Since November, it now affects my entire body. I am being sent to pain managment for the first time. I just pray that I can find that right combo of drugs that can lessen the pain greatly and help to give a better quality of life...

Oh, and I am still reading Liza Jane's hopeful message in the stickys. Even the neurologist I am seeing now said that yes, there are people with neuropathy who have gotten better. Which brings me to another emotion, hope. This is just so important to have....
