Chase: Sorry you are here! I couldn't help but respond as I see 26 others have read your post without saying a thing? Isn't that what this forum is for? I've been told more people use Facebook as the contact area, so I'm just passing that on to you. My pain is mainly while I sit. It "buries the...

My best friend is the Director of Radiology at a local hospital. He has been helping me as best he can deal with my PN. He discussed my situation with a Neurologist yesterday.
