yeah...he did these tests, tested my strength, reflexes (Babinski, etc), and no deteroration. He said it could get better, or just stay like it is, but he is 99 percent certain that it wont progress into motor.

But the pain sucks. So my original neuro was the one who said go to him, and so now perhaps I need the pain management boys. There are no more tests to run, like all of you I have been through the ringer. I think we are looking for answers that are not there...I met with a friend of mine, and she had neuropathy from pregnancy after her kid. First pill that is given to her....No symptoms! Me, I will have to try all 75 to get to the right combination. I have had good days, and some weeks (I am not what I was however), but it is intermittent. And when it hurts, it perhaps feels worse. I told him to just give me morphine, and we can both be on our way...um, I dont think he wanted to go for that....especially since I seem to have gotten a partial response to the Cymbalta. I just did not think there was much more effectiveness passed 60. The only side effect I have had is anorgasmia? Do you know what that is boys and girls of PN? hmmmmm.....let's just say that my two small dogs run away from me now!

So, the whole b6 thing seemed like BS, so in terms of root cause...I asked about the accident (which interestingly he wont relate to the PN, even though he said that it could be a shift in the CNS that caused this). But now, like everyone here, understand that there are no easy answers, and that most doctors rely on the Idiotic Pathetic cause.
