I’m moving soon (again), back to a state I lived in when this PN started. I had a consult back then (6 yrs ago) with a Neurologist at the medical university hospital. Back then, she just reviewed what my local Neurologist had done, and advised a “watch and see what happens” back then. I lived 3 1/2 hours away from her so I couldn’t let her do the watching, especially since I was still in a wheelchair back then and overnight travel was an extreme physical (and financial) hardship for us. We then eventually ended up moving to another state. I’m actually moving to her part of that state now and decided to sign her up as my Neurologist. Maybe as my owner (partner) she’ll have ideas or final thoughts over the 6 year watch, but I’ll certainly ask the Gabapentin/Lyrica question, to get her medical university’s opinion on hurting vs helping PN types, as it seems those are the immediate drugs doctors throw at us. I’ll advise when I see her in 2 months.
