I was 32 when my PN came on. I was also one of the youngest ones on the board and had a young child. My family lives very far away too. It was horrible. You are right people don't understand. But before my PN, I was at times completely but (temporarily)disabled from a chronic back condition. So my family was very use to me being lethargic & in pain.


It's been over 3 years now Daniella, and if I learned anything I learned that nerves take years to heal. The first 2 years were the hardest. I would have long periods of anxiety,dysautonomia & PN. I have had alot of recovery too. Although I have never been officially diagnosed using testing for proof, I do have a clinical diagnosis and through a process of 85% elimination they have ruled most things out. I do fit the clinical diagnosis now. Hang in there Daniella, and don't isolate yourself.

Also regarding the dry eyes... do you take beta blockers?
