@tomkipp. Any more info as might relate to might situation would be sorely needed and appreciated. I was recently diagnosed with PN and a few several months prior with spinal stenosis lumbar and a tiny bit in cervical. My actions throughout the day severely impact the intensity of the symptoms. I'm terrified that every day I go without surgery I'm further damaging nerves that could otherwise be saved. Any ideas or input welcome!!

I was suffering with the same issues as you in my early 50's. I had all of the procedures you talk about and then some. I had a laminectomy for my spinal issue. If I had to make the decision again, I would not have the surgery. My spinal issues are worse now. My neuropathy has also gotten much worse. It started in my toes and now has worked it's way up to my knees. I am now 69 and am suffering with much more pain now then when I started. Good luck and I'm sorry that you are going through this.
