Melanie;

What you have told us scares the bejeezus out of me. (Excuse spelling of bejeezus if incorrect. I didn't want to use hell.) I called my neuro yesterday after a month of increasing pain that now covers both feet up to the ankles and both legs. She basically told me "oh well, too bad, take your meds and leave me alone now."

Anyway, I'm not just whining here, I'm just thinking out loud, "what if it is not idiopathic PN"? I'm not a diabetic and every doctor I see is so sorry that I am in so much pain but once they hear the word "idiopathic" it's like all bets are off, it can't be anything else.

So in 30 years, if I live that long, maybe they will find this is something else. So I know what you're say, Melanie and I can relate. Good Luck.
