I have peripheral neuropathy, with severe pain in my feet and ankles, now moving up my legs. My pain is always there, but lately it's been worse when I sit or lie down. Standing still is worse than walking.

Have you figured out exactly where you don't feel the needle? Have you told a doctor about what you're experiencing?

Numbness and pins and needles are classic signs of neuropathy. If you can, I'd recommend that you make an appointment with a neurologist. Is that possible?

Often, neuropathy is associated with diabetes. I'm not diabetic, and doctors don't know what brought on my neuropathy. Some people have it as a side effect of chemotherapy, but there are a lot of unknowns.

If you feel comfortable about talking about what's happening, you can know that this is a safe place to talk. I'll be looking for you.

Jim
