Dahlek,
I hadn't thought about the ramifications of PN and general anesthesia but I can count on you to raise some very timely and important questions -my sincere thanks! Since it seems my diagnosis is turning more to PAIN - painful axonal idiopathic neuropathy - the demylinating aspects and the small fiber component is really important to me.

Now if I can just figure out how many tramadol = 2 gracious fingers of a smooth Tennessee sipping whiskey I should make through another night. Thanks again
