Hello, I am Mrs. Schumacher. I have had Peripheral Neuropathy for about 8 years. It has been a lot of up and down (literally) and no cause ever found. I am not diabetic though I get the glucose test yearly to be sure. I have a history of Graves Disease and take thyroid medicine. I am on Neurontin for my PN. I fell a year ago and required knee surgery and it has been difficult recovering. I did not get a replacement, but have little cartilage left. I was told a replacement would not go well with the PN, so I exercise my legs as much as I can to prevent more trouble.
I am glad to find this site where others understand what living with this dreadful disease is about. It is greatly encouraging to know there are others who understand.
Mrs. S
