[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 2450234, member: 365308"] Just sympathy really not that you want a pity party! I have had t1 for 40 years and so far have only got some mild kidney issues and loss of sight in complications bingo. My Fil (type 2) has neuropathy and was prescribed gabapentin for his pain/numbness. It is also an anti convulsant so may be contraindicated with epilepsy meds. Can your school authority Occupational Health offer any constructive adaptations and why haven't you had any hospital consultations given it sounds as if you could really benefit from some specialist help here - referral to physio/dietician (certain antiocidants can help with PN)/shrink even if this is getting you down? I am sceptical about medical help from the 'experts' but sometimes although we all battle on and always have done, there may be more out there for you if you can push more. [/QUOTE]
