You are certainly NOT alone!
NT is FULL of wonderful support, and a gold mine of knowledge!

As you poke around the forums that may suit your needs, you'll find hope around every corner....

Like you, my thyroid decided to turn on me when I was about your age.....5 yrs later....I feel like I've regained control of my life and my peripheral neuropathy

Here is the Peripheral Neuropathy forum direct link, click on:
