Hi everyone! My name is Eileen. I have significant PN in the lower
extremities. Other than that, I don't understand too much about what
is going on with me. Doctor has been giving me b-12 shots, which help
somewhat for energy. I also take neurontin for the relief of nerve
pain. It helps, although I still feel it. Along with the PN. I have
Fibromylagia, COPD, mild emphesema, Glaucoma, GERD, Myofascial pain,
I take effexor for depression. I saw my doctor yesterday. I am 54 and
I move so slowly! It is disturbing because I have been told that I
move too slow for my age. Enter in the psychiatrists, Have been
scheduled an appointment with psychiatrist for depression. Also on
the more positive side, A neurologist has been set up for me to see,
sometime in the future. My symptoms are aching in my shoulders and
arms, difficult to walk at times. Every now and then my muscles will
jerk. I have definite memory problems. Sometimes speech is slow and
words are hard to come out. Does any of this sound familiar to
anyone? Well, Im here, if anyone would care to make a comment.
Thanks. Eileen
