Just when I thought I was doing good.
 
Hi Everyone,
The last time I posted on my symptoms about three weeks ago I was doing pretty well with my change in diet and exercising a little. In the last 3 weeks I had a cold, then unsure if the stomach flu or bad mushrooms last week but sick for 4 days. Good for a few and then Tuesday a got really sick fever, h/a, chills, sinus pressure, etc. Thought I had the flu. Saw my family doc yesterday she said severe sinus infx and order Amoxicillan and Prednisone.

Forgive me for the long explanation about to come but I need to explain what I've been up to.
Monday I saw a urologist that believes my neuropathy has hit my bladder. Difficulty urinating. Prescribed Flomax.
Saw my neuro on Tuesday. He said my muscle strength has definitely decreased since last year. (I did know this thats why I went in). He is doing some more blood work and a new MRI of brain, c&t spine.

That being said I started all three of those meds last night and woke today with my neuropathy worse. Has anyone taken any of these meds or know if they can be what is making my neuropathy pain worse.

Also, does anyone else have autonomic neuropathy? If so how do you know for sure that it is the neuropathy causing the symptoms?

I appreciate any thoughts or information anyone has to offer.
Thanks, Kim:)

My small fiber neuropathy affects my bladder. Causes it to go kind of haywire...urgency to go, but difficulty emptying. It's tied at the hip with my burning feet. When my feet crank up, so does my bladder. When my feet aren't bothering me, neither does my bladder (or very little). That's how I know it is the neuropathy affecting my bladder.
