I'm happy to join all of you good people. I know I'll get great support from all of you regarding my 5+ years battle with pn. I'm also a diabetic who has my diabetes under control in a big way, so my foot pain is idiopathic as they say. Still hurts pretty bad just the same at times. I take only one 500 mg metformin a day, plus a lyrica every 4 hours, and also a cymbalta antidepressant once a day. Wondering if anyone knows if any of these meds could be the cause of my 40 lb weight gain in the past 5 years. I'd appreciate any input that you might have. Thanks in advance, and I'm looking forward to our communications. Joyce
