Welcome Janet @janetsf - You've come to the right place. We are a large community of folks who have been drafted into the neuropathy. I shared my story in another discussion here - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/310341/. You might want to scan through the other discussions in the Neuropathy Support Group to find topics that you want to know more about. Here's a list of the discussions - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/neuropathy/.

The best thing we can do to help ourselves is learn as much as we can about our condition and what treatments are available that might provide some relief. One of my favorite sites for learning more is the Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy - https://www.foundationforpn.org/. They also have a YouTube channel where they store previous webinars on neuropathy topics that you might find easier than reading - https://www.youtube.com/@foundationforperipheralneu4122.

Do you mind sharing more about your diagnosis and symptoms?
