Smile Finally getting Relief from PN
All,

It has been 2-3 weeks now that my PN symptoms have lessened. I've been to weekly accupuncture appointments for 3 months now, started on Nortryptiline just over a month ago, take 600mg Alpha-Lipoic Acid daily and I'm finally feeling some relief from PN pain. Shooting pains and shocking/jolts are way down, and burning in my feet is 50% less. While not all gone the pain is now tolerable. I still can not walk more than 30 yards without my feet killing me...but this is all a start. Just thought I'd share.

Dewey
