I have a video visit this afternoon with the Pain Clinic in Rochester. Hopefully I can get some pointers on my fibromyalgia pain and maybe neuropathy numbness and pain. My fibromyalgia has been bad with teaching kindergarten this summer in a Summer Readiness program for the public schools here. My level is averaging an 8 almost everyday and I have been having difficulty with sleep. That is when the neuropathy pain seems to chime in.

I can relate to what you are saying there are things that can be done to help you, unfortunately you will need to find the right answer bye not just taking whatever the doctor said if it didn’t work for you then you need to keep looking there are things out there that can do a lot to help, When my nerve problems started I knew nothing about what could be done after two years of this treatment or that one I thought I would be in pain for ever but after the test for the pain pump I was pain free at least for two days so I got my pump done 21 years ago and it worked so keep looking and keep a list of what has been done so you can say what has done and what worked best for you and it will help you fine what is best , you don’t be afraid to speak up and tell doctors how much it really hurts I know from my own pain that I played thing down when I should have just said that I am in a lot of pain but it took me having pain that would not stop before I gave in and said that I need help and what was really happening
