Good evening @fredpassin6 and @evansjohn007. Welcome to Connect.....both of you. You have arrived here with a form of neuropathy that is well understood by our colleague @johnbishop. You may have noticed his story about numbness at the top of this section.

Just so you know, I have pain and numbness. I think at this point, I have handled the pain almost better than the numbness. The numbness in my hands and fingers makes it difficult to type these posts without making mistakes. The pain in my hands is something I have learned to tolerate better than the numbness I do believe. Anyway....I attend two sessions a week of MFR, myofascial relief therapy. That ensures that I can drive my car and fold the laundry or do other household chores.

Between the two of us, John and I have been handling our SFPN (small fiber peripheral neuropathy by sharing options with each other. Perhaps @johnbishop will have a few moments to re-introduce himself and let you know about protocol 525.

May you be safe, protected, and free of inner and outer harm.
Chris

Hello @fredpassin6, I would like to add my welcome to Connect along with Chris @artscaping and others. @evansjohn007 only posted the one time and is no longer following Connect. I shared my story earlier on Connect here - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/310341/.

You can learn more about the Protocol 525 on their website here: https://theprotocol525.com/faq/. It got the 525 name from the number of pills you take a day - 5 in the morning, 2 at noon and 5 in the evening. They recently changed the number of pills to 4 in the morning, 2 at noon and 4 in the evening but haven't changed the name to 424. You can join their Facebook group from the website but make sure if you do that you read the new members welcome post.
