Please don't ever think that you are bothering anyone! Those of us who read the forums regularly do so with the hope that we can help someone whose experience resonates with ours. We represent a wide range of conditions and severities. Neuropathy is a disease that is often elusive of diagnosis and treatment, sometimes incurable, progressive, and crippling. We get less support from doctors and are in more pain than many other chronic illnesses. Forums like this one help each of us to feel less alone. I have learned a lot from this forum over the years, and it has helped me understand what is going on and to plan for the future.
Don't stop asking questions and keep us informed. Honestly ask yourself if there are things that you are missing out on in life because of the pain, things that you otherwise have the strength to do. Quality of life is the whole purpose of pain management. Do not limit yourself to the things that you feel obligated to do. Things that you enjoy most should come first even if they never have before.
Good luck.
