Hi there, I'm Mark. I've been experiencing polyneuropathy since a head injury 9 years ago. It finally got real bad in April last year, along with muscle cramps all over, arthritis in my hands and feet and tendonitis everywhere in my arms hands, and feet. I'm in constant pain from the bones on out, my muscles are constantly twitching or cramping, and I'm numb to above my knees and up to my elbows. Electroconductive tests in October showed demyelination and axonal polyneuropathy. I'm desperate for an appointment at Mayo, where I am a cardiac, pulmonary, and hepatic patient, but Neurology doesn't have space. Banner, where I'm also a cardiac patient, doesn't have any appointments either. And there is nobody in New Mexico, where I live, who I can see either. I'm hosed, frustrated, and want to just lay down and die. Sorry, but that's how I feel today. Hopefully, tomorrow will be better.
