Welcome back debrae4. It's good you returned here. Right now nothing comes to mind. I have some of the same things but mine is called idiopathic peripheral neuropathy and mine is on both sides and by now all over my body. Please look around while someone notices your thread and hopefully can be of more help than I am.

I usually post on the Forum for Emotional Support thread. I'd like to ask you to join us there on that group if you'd like. That is a great bunch of folks who is always supportive no matter what the cause you want to talk about.

Anyonne else have anything that might help?
