@jesfactsmon Awww, Hank. Such a nice message from you. It is not silly to attempt to cure neuropathy in your dreams. I am always trying when I am awake, and so is everyone else that is here!!! Something that a neurologist I had said to me really registered. I was talking to him about stem cell treatment for neuropathy, and he spoke plainly and said, "Nerves are smart. Very smart, and they are hard to figure out. Muscle tissue, bone tissue, etc., are kind of dumb, and therefore, are better at responding to stem cell therapy. You can work with them better." It hit me how little there is for any nerve disease in general, because nerves are so smart, and hard to deal with. There are little effective drugs, and most people do not respond much to them. There are few therapies that make a giant difference. To think that smoking grass is the new suggestion to chronic pain and nerve disease, is a joke. But it is all we really have. To think we send men to the moon, but cannot figure out the nervous system amazes me. But what do I know? So I wait here to hear from my pain doc. He is still trying to find a way to get me my trial. I won't hold my breath. We are all just human, trying our best. I think you are one great guy to work so hard at this, that your dreams are effected by it. It is a great tribute to your determination and love of your wife. Keep dreaming.....you just never know what you will discover...do not give up. Be safe, God Bless, Lori
