Hello @pazo, You will notice that we removed your email address to protect your privacy since Connect is a public forum available to anyone on the Internet.

I know it must be frustrating not being able to find something that helps. From your earlier posts, it sounds like you believe the numbness and tingling in the hands may be related to the spinal infection you mentioned in earlier posts. I'm 81 and have neuropathy but it's mostly in my legs and only numbness and some tingling. I'm an older man also and have thought about where I'm at in life but prefer to just take it one day at a time and live the best I can.

The Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy has some helpful information if you haven't already seen it - https://www.foundationforpn.org/living-well/. Are you still able to play the guitar for your own enjoyment?

Yes Mr.Bishop I do play at home for my wife and some of my daughters,when they come by to see us.{I have 4} I can only play about 1/2 hour, I've been holding a piece of ice in my hand for 10 minutes and it helps but I could not do this for --4--hours any more. I understand what you mean-you're -81--I just turned --83--in June, all my big Key West group of about 70/80 people call me from time to time asking I can do a wedding or a special party etc---but, no I can't, being born here and graduating from KW high school{1960} going in the US Army for --6--years and then coming home and becoming a mail man for almost 42 years was a great life for us, I knew every one here in some way. I get so depressed often, almost every week but what can we do--as you say just try to live day to day. Thank you for your notice, very nice of you, Bobby Pazo
