Thank you all for the feedback. I am sitting here right now is bad pain. My foot and leg below the knee are so swollen they look and feel like they are going to pop. I did take a percocet about 2 hours ago which help decrease the pain. It is back now. My toes are so swollen I cannot move them. I had to cancel lymphedema therapy today because I was having electrical work done in the house. I don't see the neurologist until May 22 so I have no clue what type of neuropathy except for peripheral. The cardiologist said the reason all the pain and swelling is on my left side is because the damaged nerve is probably on that side. My quality of life is so diminished and with my depression and pain it is worse. I am alone here. I lost my husband 14 months ago from cancer. I feel the doctors waited too long to address my pain and physical problems always using grief to account for everything. Well I don't think it has caused neuropathy. In tears right now.

I’m so sorry for your pain and feelings of sadness. I’m praying for you. Hopefully, you will feel a little better tomorrow. 🙏🙏🙏🌈😁

Dear Summertime ,
You are not alone !!! I feel your pain from here . I hope where you are that you are finally asleep . I am so sorry about your loss . There are so many searching for answers , myself included . I will start the protocol in July when I am home working instead of traveling for work. I am on Gabapentin 600 and like many hate being on it . My doctor wants me to double it but I can not talk right ,walk right or remember what the hell I’m doing . But have to say without it right now it is unbearable . I wish you peace in your journey and we all have mind and body work ahead of us .

Summertime I just lifted you up in prayer. I do hope you get everything under control soon. I’m sorry for all your pain.
