Welcome Craig,
The end of this week will be my tenth anniversary. A bit about myself, I practiced family medicine for 25 years, then retired- the first mistake- then had too much fun, then was stung by a mosquito, Contracted a virus which mimicked (sp?) the covering of my spinal cord nerves. So my body attacked my spinal cord. I now have a small pea sized volume of demyelination at the 6th cervical region, on the right side. I walk poorly, have constant pain from my upper chest to the bottoms of my feet. My symptoms are made worse by change in barometric pressure, heat, cold, stress (Meditation/prayer helps enormously)... I could go on and on...under the pain is a numb tingly feeling. I take a lot of lot of Meds: Nortriptyline, Phenobarbital ( I know Marilyn Monroe killed herself with this, but I'm not suicidal except on Monday evening [ just kidding]), Marijuana spray obtained by Rx from a pain Dr. in Montreal, Vitamin D and Dextromethorphan. If you need help feel free to email Frank
