Chris, thank you so much for your encouraging words, they mean more than you could know. I am the only person I know who has idiopathic neuropathy, I have 2 friends with diabetic neuropathy but not having someone to talk to who understands what I am dealing with can feel lonely. I have an amazing husband who is incredibly supportive and the most caring, thoughtful teen age boys who do everything they can to help me.
I actually take 600mg Gabapentin 2 times a day and 900mg at bed time. It does help but the night time pain sometimes seems unbearable. When I wake it's a rare occasion that I can get back to sleep; I've developed an intimate relationship with coffee. 😉
I'm open to any suggestions and am grateful to have support and understanding from those who truly understand.
