How long do you have your PN? what kind? how it started? How long it took till you to get DX? How do you coop with the symptoms? ect...

  • I've had it 12 years now.
  • It started with burning in my arches.
  • Has progressed into my legs, hands and face.
  • I have Idiopathic PN.
  • Took about 3 years to be DX.
  • I cope with the pain mainly with exercise, keeping my weight in check, rest and sleep, eating right, tears not to mentioned prescription drugs. (Lyrica and Tramadol)
