Hello, Do any of you have Neuropathy? It's torturously painful, websites describe the early stages, tingling and needle stick pain occasionally but they don't describe the later stages that are intensely painful constantly.

Hi, @pfbacon, and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. We have a group on Connect dedicated to Neuropathy, so I merged your post here with one of the large discussions in that group so you can get to know some of the members talking about neuropathy.

I'm really sorry to hear you are having tortuous pain. How has your pain been treated so far, @pfbacon?

Hi @pfbacon, I would like to add my welcome along with @lisalucier and other Connect members. I have small fiber peripheral neuropathy but only have the numbness and tingling so I'm lucky in that respect. I shared my neuropathy story and journey in an earlier post here on Connect. You can read more here if you like:

What type of neuropathy do you have? Are you able to share any more details of your diagnosis and any treatments that were suggested that might help?

John
