Confused I have been diagnosed with Small Fiber Sensory Neuropothy

I am new here and I have SFSN. Just diagnosed. Here are my symptoms....

Feeling of wearing boots or like a pressure cuff around my calfs and ankles.
Shooting, stabbing pain in my feet that make me jump.
Toothache like pain in my feet, throbbing sometimes burning sometimes like stepping on glass or needles.
Before medication my outer heels were so sensitive I could not wear shoes or drive long. I cant walk or stand very long without these symptoms starting and if I do walk, say to go food shopping, my feet hurt for two days.

Cymbalta has taken care of the superficial pain around my heels and some of the stabbing pain and because it is an anti-depressant I am not down in the dumps. I do have to take a low dose of pain medicine to control the other pain as needed. (Oxetcodone) I am very careful because I don't want to get addicted.

I'm frustrated, and have been on medical leave for a month and a half and can't imagine when I can return to a normal life. I am taking it a day at a time trying to keep busy with my glass art and jewelry/bead making.

I'd love to hear from others......
