hello Doctor. What a surprise, I did not expect to speak to someone. I am under medical care, I have Fibromyalgia, MFS, osteoporosis, a little arthritis, and lumbar ,neck discs that protrude.... and am presently having a bit of an uncomfortable day with Neuralgia, from the waist down, very painful, plus a FM flare. I wanted to know exactly what causes the neuralgia, and if there is anything I am able to do at home to ease this problem. My Dr is presently trialling Norspan patch 5mg, to help ease back some of my daily pain issues which I have had for very many years, and just dealt with it all, exercise, walking, in the pool, stretching, stretches at home, and rest, when needed. But of late its all developed a little more difficult so much working all together in the bod!!So sir if you can give me a reason for this neuralgia in the lower body, I would be most thankful.. its a mite different to in the teeth!! kindly,Irene Higgins Qld Aust.
