Default Another NEWBIE with questions

Hi to everyone.
I am a 70 year old male who has, after much misinformation, been diagnosed with PN. My PN has as yet not been classified. All I know is my feet , and hands hurt. So far, I have been put on Neurontin, and Metanx, and Nortriptyline. I have had a heart attack some years ago, and have been on Simvastatin ever since. I read somewhere where chloresterol lowering drugs can sometimes cause NP. I have yet to discuss this with my neurologist, but I will see him later on this month.
I am flabergasted by all the information, and especially the medical terms used in this communities. Seems like everybody else knows so much more than I do. But, never fear, I'll catch up.
Just want to say thanks for all who contribute. Information is the key.
