Does anyone have pain from PN that feels like bruises in various places in body? I do have the tingling pain and that electric shock feeling. The bruise feeling is in waist, arms, and legs primarily.

I went to my GP doctor and she thought it might be fibromyalgia. She referred me to rheumy MD. The rheumy examined me thoroughly and said "no" to fibromyalgia.

My original diagnosis is peripheral neuropathy and I am on 1600 mg gabapentin daily. The gaba does provide good pain relief.

I have troubles sitting because of waist pain.
