Default Hi from Sunny Scotland
Hi My name is Arlene and i am a 43 year old PN sufferer, sometimes I am at the end of my tether and I come on here and read the posts, it is normally enough just knowing others are experiencing the same as me.
I am still working full time but I dont know how long I will be able to keep this up, the tiredness is a killer as I cant sleep for the pain at night and then have to get up for work in the morning.
Has anyone tried an intensive accupuncture/reflexology course? - I went to Chinese doc who said he could cure me and it would take many months but the cost was around £150 per week - I dont have that at the moment, but would do without other things if i thought it would work. - I bought a medical rebuilder but dont seem to have the cure I had hoped.
Anyway thanks for reading.
Arlene

Your welcome to Scotland any time but the damp weather aint good for PN, glad you like Craig Ferguson - he isnt known here at all which is a shame.

Arlene, so glad you decided to join us. I wish I had a great solution for you, but many others on here may be able to help out more!

I agree this is such a great place for support...a real life saver for me too!

Hi there.

Welcome.

I'm VERY interested in your experience with the Rebuilder. I just recently put up a post on this in the Neuropathy Forum.

Can you share your experience and results using the Rebuilder?

I'd appreciate it.

Thanks much

Melody

Hey, all the way from Scotland...
it's a small world. I too would love to visit your homeland.

About the reflexology, well, I think it's a tremendous help. My therapist/friend got me a twist board for Christmas, about $20. http://images.google.com/images?hl=e...-8&sa=N&tab=wi

This is something I can do while I work, about an hour a day. I think it's helped me. The footprints are cool.

If the chinese person says he can CURE you for 150 a week, I'd have to sacrafice whatever I had to and give it a whirl. Did he say how long it would take? Did he say they may be risks involved with his methodds? Ask questions before you commit. If you feel comfortable with him, heck yeah, go for it.

See ya around the board.

Please keep us posted on your decision and hopefully progress.
