Hi @carlyschneider, I can understand the still processing the diagnosis. It is a lot to take in and it's easy to get buried by anxiety. It's good that you are researching and advocating for yourself. Have you considered any alternative treatments or therapy to see if they might offer some relief from your symptoms?
Have you heard of Myofascial Release Therapy (MFR)? There is a discussion started by @jenniferhunter where you can learn more about it - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/myofascial-release-therapy-mfr-for-treating-compression-and-pain/. @artscaping has found considerable relief from her MFR sessions and may be able to share more information with you.
The Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy also has some complementary and integrative therapies for neuropathy on their website -- https://www.foundationforpn.org/living-well/integrative-therapies/
