I'm very new to this and don't really know what to say so I'll give a short version. My neuropathy, my doctors tell me, is due to alcohol abuse. i am a year completely clean now after spending 30 days in a very excellent rehab facility. on the other hand I'm dealing with this horrible neuropathy that just continues to get worse in my own mind. I've been on gabapentin the past year and am currently on the maximum dose of 3,600 mg daily, or I think I might go crazy, or have a seizure. I've always worked out and before being forced into early retirement I walked at least 10,000 steps a day in my last position. I've not been tested because I thought what's the use of a specialist diagnosing me for something I know I already have. I too miss riding my "very high dollar" street bike as well. Now it seems to substitute for a nice coat rack. Really sad too because I have this newly found zeal to want to work with young people about their own addictions. I'm on the right track, but I have to be honest, it does get me down at times. Thank God Covid is getting somewhat better!!!
