Living with Neuropathy - Welcome to the group

HankB @jesfactsmon
Hello Hank,
In 2012, was the trailer fire. I lost 7 dogs and 6 cats in there. I can honestly say now that my mind is stuck on the fact that it was arsoned and the reason I believe this is because I lived in this trailer for 2 years and when my family would leave we would turn the main breaker off. April 19th 2012 I finally got my bill of sell and made plans to move the trailer into a country area, on April 21st 2012 we left to go and get some flowers and we decided to give our neighbor one of our babies for a surprise, (friend of ours at the time) without him knowing. When we we heading home he called my husband and asked 3 times if we had our daughter which he answered "yes".
When I was told about the fire, I kept screaming "breck in back door, bust in the glass" but he said it too late. A 13 year old female seen it all and told me she tried to save them while others just watched. When I told the person who was supposed to get a pup and he told me "if I had known that, the fire would never have happened."
My mind shut down after that, I had to go through therapy and put on meds to help me to cope of the loss of my fur babies.

Before the accident of getting hit in the head with a log, I also hit my own head with the claw part of a hammer which the doctors claim I did it on purpose. My husband told the doctor he could understand if I hit my head with the hammer twice but 6 times without me knowing I was really doing it?
This is why I'm scared of having brain fog, or clouds, I can't think or communicate when this happens and my husband makes sure that I'm in a safe place and keeps a close I on me so that I don't do harm to myself or others when this happens.

I was told I have chronic issues to where I make myself have medical problems and that I'm looking for attention.

Thank you for the idea about writing a journal on this, and I will start right away, maybe I can pin point where the fog, or cloud started and get to the bottom of what is going on.
SORRY for writing a story.

Thx but we looked and there are some that do not contain the word, "neuropathy" anywhere in the email. . Working on it; have n'fied Colleen.

Dearest Laura @david33, Gasp, I can't even wrap my mind around what you've been through!!!!!!!!!! My heart is aching for you and your family!!! I will keep you in my prayers and pray that the Lord comforts you and gives you the peace of God through Christ which surpasses all human understanding. That's the only thing that keeps me sane and going on. Warmest regards, Sunnyflower

Yes, most do but some definitely do not. Anywhere! Believe me, we looked. Could be it was some replies, but underneath in blue that is usually there, isn't in some. Thx for taking the time. 😊

@sunnyflower, you're right. When someone "likes" your post, you cannot tell which group or discussion the post is in until you open the email. Ummm. That should be something we look at changing. Thanks for the tip.

Replies give you plenty of information. See image attached.
In the subject line of the email you can see both who posted the message and the title of the discussion (i.e., topic).
At the bottom of the email you can see the group (or groups) that the discussion is in.

For all of those with severe neuropathy pain in the feet and ankles, I urge you to talk with your doc/pain management about the possibility of getting a peripheral nerve stimulator. Take a look at SPR Peripheral Nerve Stimulator (SPRINT) and Bioness StimRouter. SPR is A 60-day treatment; StimRouter is a permanent implant.

@david33 Laura. I feel so much sadness for you. My fur baby is everything. You are very strong to deal with this
