I'd like to invite @boo55 @lauraj155 @lavieauxusa1972 @albiet @peggyn @lorirenee1 to share whether they can relate to any of the symptoms you mentioned you were having, @pieface1971:
- small nerves in both feet are dying as it also travels up both legs
- heart arrhythmias
- sluggish bowel
- retention post urine

They may also have some tips from their own experiences of how they have coped with their symptoms.

@reecey also mentioned being on the verge of being diagnosed with small fiber neuropathy. Do you now have a diagnosis, reecey?

I have slow heart rate. I have a loop recorder to monitor the heart. For sluggish bowel, I use Metamucil. I have been taking magnesium lately, which seems to keep the bowels moving without Metamucil. For the urine issue, you could get a device implanted in the lower part of your back that would regulate the urine output. I have not done that yet.
