Below is the last section of the form. I really do not have to write any in this section. Do you think my two paragraphs help my cause or hurt it? Generally speaking the rule of thumb on this Function Report is: "Less is More". "Don't hang yourself by your own words." I would appreciate your thoughts/edits/feedback of my final two paragraphs. THANK YOU!!! (Yellow highlight is straight off of the form - their directions for this section):

Dealing with PN has been a long and odorous process. I have learned that many doctors misdiagnosis it and therefore their treatment plan is/was wrong. Some doing more harm than help. I am thankful that I finally have a scientific, objective source of data that proves I have PN (skin biopsy results - which are attached). Now, since we have a correct DX, hopefully and finally, correct treatment can continue/begin.

Everything I have read on the subject states that PN is almost always progressive and is always chronic. There is no cure for it. Only treatment of the symptoms. At less now, with the skin biopsy results - I no longer have to listen to a healthcare provider tell me something of this nature - "It is all in your head. You are fine. There is nothing more I can do for you." I am/was so tired of the mental-health discrimination. Yes, I have mental health issues. However, that does not mean that I cannot also have PN. Now my task is learning how to live productively with a chronic and painful condition.

Thank you for reading this.
