What you have is just terrible. I was wondering have you ever had a pharmacogenetic test. It’s drug gene testing. They can take blood, saliva or cheek cells. It helps to identify what group of drugs give you side effects. The test can identify variations in genes that tell how you process drugs. I’m not sure if that would help you.
Some of these diagnosis most don’t know exist. Trying to locate a doctor is another problem. I wish you more days of feeling great.

Hi,
Fortunately I have a proactive Dr but her hands are tied with a limit of what she can autherise.
The best medication I have in my arsenal is work. I try to keep myself busy so I don't get too caught up in self pity, just potter around my workshop getting something done. I'm slowly getting through the back log of machines I'm building so I can get back to my hobby of building models. It is difficult to work with hands that don't do as I want and feel like tree stumps most of the time. But a little patients and perserverance gets me through. Strangely enough pick up a pair of tweezers and I can do anything without fumbling. Years of doing so have left me with the ability of instinctivly knowing how much pressure to apply to do the job. I suspect a lack of feeling in the finger tips could be responsible.
My last task is to get a second opinion as I find it difficult to believe I have autonomic polyneuropathy. I guess/ hope something else might be found which could have a treatment or possible cure, can't stop being optomistic. I guess I'm dreading confirmation though.
Cheers
