Ummm…. You are looking for comments from this community on a discussion. It appears that both of you posters, so far, have a working medical background, whereas most of the rest of us do not. Or maybe I should just speak for myself? I have no idea what you are talking about when you use letters like “SFPN” and “PDE5” to stand in for… I don’t know what! Yes that is a lot to type out each time but perhaps you can type it out the first time so that we/I will know what you are talking about and then use the alphabet form of the “words” next time.
I don’t mean to be impertinent, just looking for clarification.

Hi Judy @judyingenes, Acronyms can be a little overwhelming, especially in the medical field. I have no medical training or background. When I run across a new acronym the search is on for me to find out what it is. I didn't know what PDE5 was before either until I found the link in my earlier post.

Phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors (PDE5i) and SFPN is small fiber peripheral neuropathy which is one of the conditions I have.

Hope this helps
