Default newbie

Hi My name is Jolina and I am undergoing tests for neuropathy not sure which one. It started about 1 month ago. kinda like skin sensitivity all over my body. wanting to scratch it or rub what ever was feeling that sensation. then my hands and feet felt like they were dipped in icy hot. when to dr. got blood work done. b-12 level was 250 so they thought is was that. I am on 1000 vitamin b-12 once a day. then I went strait to a neurologist two days later. I was not going to just sit around and "see" if it got better. they want to do a nerve test in two weeks. I then called three days later to see if they could give me anything to take away this feeling. the burning was getting to me. they put me on nuerotin and I have had a few "episodes" but nothing horrible. I am now really tired and my arms are tired all the time. I had a headache for the first 5 days of taking it. 200mg three times a day. is this normal to feel this way on this med. sometimes I feel great and back to normal then the next day I am not wanting anything to touch my skin. has anyone else had this. is this the beggining of something horrible. I have three kids 5, 4, and 1. I want to be around for them. I hate this. I just got my body back to normal, feeling great. lost a lot of weight and now this. This just sucks. and it sucks I have to wait to find out what wrong. can it be healed. I have had tail bone pain for about 1.5 years. I am wondering if that has anything to do with it. any suggestions or help. words of wisdom. I would love it.
thanks for ready this.
Jolina
