Good Morning @donnalujan11. Welcome to Connect. Connect is composed of patients, caregivers and fellow sufferers. My background includes a lack of affinity for medical issues until I became one. Would you be able to tell me a little more about you? For example, what medical diagnoses have you received? How long have you been living with pain? What kind of medical providers do you see regularly? Thanks.... you may meet other mentors and that information would be helpful. Be relieved of pain today, if only for a little while. Chris

Yes thank you my pain started back in 2011 when I broke my right leg in three different places I woke up one morning and jumped out of bed because I thought I was late for work and my leg went out from under me and did a twirl and broke it in three places and I didn’t get peripheral neuropathy until about two years later after that but now it’s full force in the right leg and has moved to the left leg I’ve done exercise I’ve tried all the cybalta, lyrics, neurontin, savella, change the muscle relax sent up several probably four times with different muscle relax sense but they always seem to go back to the Flexeril I don’t take hydrocodone I don’t like that prescription I do take tramadol but I only try to take no more than two a day. I’m not diabetic with Paeripheal neuropathy most people are diabetic. I know most of the physicians in town from working with them but I do have a pain specialist and neurologist rheumatoid arthritis an internist I feel like I’m leaving one of my physicians out but my brain is not working right now I would appreciate any thoughts any recommendations and suggestions thank you all
