Good Results

Thanks Lani,
I am taking alpha-lipoic acic but it did not help the neuropathy.
Three weeks I saw a neurologist who recommended Cymbalta,
which I began. The results were shocking, in less than a week
on a low dose I had some relief from the tingling and burning.
But the most interesting results was the relief from joint and muscle pain
caused by the Femara. By the second week my toes were improving
and now I am in the thrid week and the dr. believes by the time he
completes the full dose I will have additional improvement. So far
I am feeling 50% improvement with my toes and I am enjoying my
walks again. But the very best part is the relief from the joint and
muscle pain which I did not expect.

Wiggling my toes and smiling!

Jean
