What helps the symptoms of Small Fiber Neuropathy?

Hi! This site is the way to start a New Year!! I always learn something! PN is my BIG problem, but I have another BIG blood pressure problem as well. It put me in the hospital several times and the ER even more. Now, I was told to just live with it, no matter how high it goes. I can wake up with very low pressure, or high and it continues with up and down all the time. I have seen many Doctors, but I guess I have to accept that I am one of those unexplainable cases. I take a few prescription meds for it, but for whatever reason, it is NOT under control. I do NOT use salt, but some prepared foods have more than I should have (crab cakes)! I drink 1/2 cafe coffee, always no caffeine tea. Finally, here are my questions: Is it worth it to get all your vitamins and prescription drugs reviewed? I asked my Pharmacist, (and I offered to pay her) but, she said she did not have time. I have a "heady" feeling after I take my pills that lasts all day. Now, if I am home all day, I wait until almost lunch to take my meds. Probably wrong, but seriously wrong? Have to take them the same time each day? I have a new PCP since mine retired, and is not really helpful. Open to ideas! Happy New Year!!

First things first.... this Chesapeake Bay girl makes her own crab cakes, mainly so I can see and taste the lump blue crab meat and not have it wasted with a bunch of salt and filler junk! (of course some Old Bay seasoning, but not enough to blow a gasket, and if the mayonnaise is adding too much sodium, then more is being added than needed to hold the precious crab meat together 🙂 ) I'm sorry about your pharmacist not helping - the last time I asked mine a question, he very nicely advised a website tool to check drug interactions of a new med with existing ones I was taking. I sure hope you get your new PCP up to task, they really need to help you. Thinking of you and hope you get answers.
