Question: What testing have you had for neuropathy?

I thought about you when we went to meet my childhood best friend for lunch, who happened to be passing through my area. I recall a couple of years ago when you were hesitant going out to coffee with friends. The last time I saw her a few years back we met at a country themed club and all took turns on a mechanical bull. Sometimes I feel like that's what we're doing, but without the mat underneath us 🙂

Funny that you should have remembered my story of being hesitant to meet a friend for coffee all because I'd become so unstable on my feet; perhaps most hesitant because I'd begun to use a cane and I didn't want to have my friend see me as someone who needed to use a cane. Today, I'm ashamed to admit I'd felt that way. In all the months since, during which I've learned to live with PN without it becoming my identity, I have come to realize that my friends, for the most part, don't even 'see' my cane. If they do my wielding a cane, they tacitly approve of my doing it and not being so self-conscious that I pass up an opportunity for us to meet for coffee. What funny creatures we are! 🙂
