Red face PN-new member
Hi, I'm new to this, but not new to PN, I've had it for a long time. I wear braces on my feet and ankles so that I can walk. I take 2400 mg of Gabby and alot of pain killers. I'm not working now and hope that I get SS disability. I don't think others understand how hard it is with he pain and being tired all the time. I would love to hear from anyone that has PN and what its like for them and how they handle it.
Thanks

Hi Shoe

I can totally relate. Last year my ankles and feet got so bad that I had
to wear splints and special bands on them. But I had orthopedics made
for my shoes and those have helped.

I also have pain in my neck and shoulders. So I have a massage therapist,
and she does lots of good for me. Its something my physical therapist at one time recommended so I might not have to come see her so much. It worked.

I also have dizziness problems, that I did therapy for.

What type of therapy did you do for the dizziness? I didn't know anything could help that.
