Hello.
My name is Tina and I am struggling with this neuropathy diagnosis which is from my Conns disease complications.It is soo difficult to be in pain all the time,I am looking for information to stop it getting any worse.
I am not diabetic, however Conns disease does cause you to feel hypo all the time and need to eat sugary foods which I'm trying to now avoid.The Dr prescribed pregabalin but for 3 days I simply slept day and night ,was horrendously lightheaded and felt like a zombie,even on a low dose ,no quality of life whatsoever Unfortunately the Conns disease does cause severe weakness as does my low vit d ,all corrected now.Its all the residuals I am now suffering from.I cannot believe this has happened to me, I was very fit and regularly walked 10 miles on a weekend until Conns struck.Along time to diagnosis,sadly.The frustration of being told is all in your head when you have a potentially fatal endocrine condition!! I find a hot bath really helps,hot water bottle and good friend to vent to.
