I want to say hello. I am not sure I liked the comment you doctor said to you. Not having compassion, just saying you are done, isn't much on the "hope" side....The meds. you are taking can and do make a "med head" I couldn't take those two. Please seek yet another opinion, and see what can be done about the PN. I have it in my feet and go to a psyciatrist, who deal with PN, and just about every other kind of pain from a cellular level. I take B12 injections, Co Q 10 and R Lipoic acid. I have made impovements. I do wish you all the best, and hope you will seek another physician. ginnie
