Default Mrs D; Lizzie

I'm getting somewhat of a referral down to the big toe. Of course, at the end of the day, the buzzing and burning is at it's peak. I'll try again in the morning.

I have been using magnets and SalonPas, and they seem to make a bit of a difference. Going to have to get some BioFreeze; could not tolerate capsacin and the stock Ben Gay stuff is worthless. Am starting on an Epsom Salt regimen to see if that works.

I like to exercise on a Wii Fit, but it wants bare or stocking feet. I am going to start using ankle braces with arch supports inserted and see if that makes any difference.

After spending the last month dealing with a cervical epidural and a Moh's procedure for skin cancer, I just hate to get on the medical treadmill again, but I guess I need to get back to a podiatrist. I had a falling out with her when this started and she couldn't get me measured for orthotics for a month; then another six weeks to get them. Guess it's time to eat crow and go back.

Lizzie, I stopped my Paxil about a year before the neuropathy started. Mine is confined to my feet only. I have a feeling, as Mrs. D stated, that this is some sort of structural problem and not drug related. Thanks for the input on the Amitrip; think I will ask my doc about it at my next visit.
