That was how I thought. I didn’t want to go through it unless necessary to live. I too gave birth to 3 children without any medication(just a lot of heavy breathing). My only worry is that it might one day make it difficult to walk and it would be something I could have prevented.
But right now I am recovering from a mastectomy, so my neuropathy is on the back burner.
Thank you everyone for the advise and care!
