I am seeing a doctor at Mass. General that has tentatively diagnosed me with SFN. I say tentatively as only a formality because just about everything fits.

Since my slay ride began 6 years ago I rarely ever get relief, except since I began Gabpantin. However, mine does seem to wax and wane throughout the week. I have experienced numerous weeks of relatively calm though not without pain, followed by numerous weeks of relative increased pain. I wish I understood the trigger better.

Dac122,

You could try keeping a daily health log and include what you are eating and stressful situations. All seem to play a part with Neuropathic pain.

@ DavidL,

Yes, I have symptoms that come and go. Some days (In the beginning) even fooled me into thinking that this horrible feeling is going to leave my body. I know now that it is only temporary and the all too familiar comes back. Although now, it never seems to be completely missing from my day to day. I also have the hope of nerve regeneration, supposedly it can be a similar feeling, but who really knows.
Good luck and you might try keeping a daily log as well and maybe you can find the triggers.
