still working with small fiber neuropathy

Posted by swartzki @swartzki, Jan 13, 2020

Just wondering if any of you out there with SFN are still able to work. The fatigue and flu-like feeling I have are crippling,but I'm trying to keep my job. Do any of you experience the flu-like feeling? Is there anything that can help?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Neuropathy Support Group.

I also have sFN with autonomic disfunction, waiting for some more tests to be done. I was prescribed anphetamines for the brain fog but I refused to take them because of the secondary effects, my doctor then switched them to vitamine C and arginine suplements. I also take magnesium, alpha lipoic acid, l carnintine, B12 and lots of caffeine , etc.. It helps a little bit and allows me to keep up working.. I haven 't caught a cold in the but I continue to feel drowsy and sleepy but at bedtime I sleep bad because of the neuropathic stress I feel in both legs even though I take pregabaline and amitriptyline. I sleep with a cushion under my lumbar area, I feel better that way because I also have stomach issues, I have restless sensations all over my body
