No, my calves, especially my left one ache all day and night. They are the worst at night when I finally settle down for the evening. I am 43 years old and had the neuropathy for 3 years. It is very frustrating not knowing what is causing this because deep down I know something is and the doctors have not figured it out yet. I am starting to experience joint pain in my fingers, running a low grade fever, and my eyes are so dry sometimes I have difficulty blinking. I take 30 mg. of cymbalta in the morning and 150 mg. of lyrica at night. The cymbalta worked great in the beginning, but I feel my body is getting use to it because my neuropathy is getting worse. I have tried mirapex and it didn't work. I also tried a drug for parkinsons, but forgot the name and I was in a fog all day. Now I am on predisone for back pain. I am too young and active to be dealing with all this. i guess I am having a pity party for myself. Thanks for listening.
