@jgraber This is tough to read, but tougher for you to endure and deal with. You write like the nurse you are, with specificity as to where your pain is around your body. That has to help your neurologist figure out relief for you. Beyond that, we need more research into neuropathy and the pain it causes.
“Tight socks” applies to the tightness and strangling at the ankles I can feel when sitting too long. Sensitivity to cold and heat? Check.
This Mayo site definitely gives us the comfort and awareness that we are not alone in dealing with a complicated, misunderstood, painful and disabling disease. We can be in this together, and that is a help. Thanks for your response.
