Hello to All. I guess i just want to Vent a little. I just went back to my Doctor yesterday. I found that my Viral was detectable agn T4 was good. So Im worried about that. But my feet and hands are getting worse I cant wear shoes anymore sandals is it. And when at home bare foot its awful living with the pain. He made me so mad i wanted to get up an leave. He wanted to know what had happen what had i done I told him nothing that i always took my meds. I wanted to adress the feet an hands but he just ran out of there and i came back home.

If anyone has a alternative treatment than gabapentin and Cymbalta Id like to no what it is I first thought these meds were to help with the nerves but after doing abit of studying i found that they are just mind and drugs to mask the problem so i dont want to take them I feel so messed up on them i cant hardly manage day to day chores i had to quit work back in sept.07 So Im stuck here at home with not much to do.If anyone would want to please reply back signed keith…..
