I am not doing so well right now. At the weekend I tried to forget this PN stuff and I walked around the shops with friends on Saturday and Sunday. I paid for it with lots of pain yesterday. I guess I need to be able to pace myself and I find this hard, I still want to be “normal”.

Can someone explain to me why having PN is making me feel less of a person and my self-confidence is all shot to ribbons? I cannot contemplate going far from home and this is pathetic. For no apparent reason my anxiety levels have gone sky high today. Sorry for the vent but I am feeling low. The Lyrica is still making me feeling weird and confused and I have been on it for nearly four weeks, do these side effects go away with time?

Sorry to be so miserable.
