Hi @sunnyflower the way you describe this affliction of yours it sounds like Dante's Inferno. Not trying to be funny at all. Truly it sounds like a type of living in hell here on earth. You are the first one that I can remember describing their neuropathy being bad in their knees. I know you had said earlier that you keep a chilled gel-filled blanket on them. I am glad that something gives you some relief.

I just came home from volunteering for the Red Cross so I have been gone all day. I walked in and said hi to my dear sweet wife and could immediately tell by the look on her face that she was in a lot of pain and had been for several hours. She had that hung down, eyes down cast and squinty grimace that is the tell tale sign that we all know. She is in so much pain today and this is probably the 5th day in a row of just misery. As a caregiver it makes me so sad not to have anything to give her or do for her. She has severely burning feet and a terrible headache, and I am sure very bad tinnitus, she always has that. This is just such a frustrating problem. Just needed to vent, I am so sorry for your personal cross of pain to bear Sunny, it just seems like there so many very wonderful people who are suffering so much. I know it's for a perfectly good reason that only God knows. But all my best to you, Hank
