You told my story. i started out just like you. i've been diagnoised since 92(i think) it doesn't get better, at least for me it hasn't. it just seems to deteriorate. some days i can hardly move it's a day in bed sleeping if i can. Have you ever been tested for fibromyalgia? it has some of the symptoms that you described. i also have that. i was tested for rhemuitoid arthritis also but didn't have it but neuropathy and fibro. most people just don't understand how we feel. they can't see to touch it ,smell it so that makes up fakes. if they only knew the excrusiating pain that we endure every day not just once in awhile like a headache but ever day all day and night 24/7 we have chronic pain. the only way that i can endure is with the help of my lord and savior Jesus Christ the great physician. he gives me relief when i can no longer stand the burning and the muscle
cramps.
i'm so glad that you srote to me. i enjoy conversing with others. i'm sorry that you have neuropathy. no one should have to go through this,but god must love us an awful lot for us to have suffer like we do.
