I may have problems similar to yours. In September of 1996 I had a small spot on my right big toe that became numb. Since then, I've begun having numbness in various fingers and toes that has now become constant in the lower right leg and the little finger of each hand. I took Neurontin for a while but it didn't help so I switched to Carbatrol. I haven't been able to afford it for the last year and the numbness began to grow worse last fall.
I also have a hard time eating. If I eat too fast, I get intense pressure and I can't burp. Many types of bread seem to cause the worst problem although cheese has also created problems at times. When this happens, I also have a hard time swallowing. It's really hard when I go into insulin shock when this happens because I can't swallow anything to treat the insulin reaction.

Say you'll share with
me one
love, one lifetime . . .
Lead me, save me
from my solitude . . .

Say you want me
with you ,
here beside you . . .
Anywhere you go
let me go to . . .
Christine,
that's all I ask of . . .
(you)
