It does seem each attack is worse than the previous one, but the current attack is probably the worst ever. I twisted my right ankle badly during a work party and it started hurting a lot more this week. I came home early because I could feel the swelling and the pain intensify. When I got home, I tried to take a nap but after thirty minutes, both feet exploded in neuropathy pain. After settling down a bit, ther are now four active sites that are hurting. The worst is right below the left inside ankle. On the right side, the entire foot is swollen and sore from the sprain, but there are three points of intense pain. I can barely walk and there is no way I can sleep, yet I still need to go to my sister’s house to take care of her two dogs.

Since I could not walk that well, I called my parents to go and feed the dogs. I was able to get about an hour’s worth of sleep, and my fee3t seemed better, except tor the ankle. I picked up some dinner, then went to my sister’s house. I was so tired that I fell asleep fright after eating.
At around 1:00 am this morning, I woke up with both feet on fire. There were four pain sites on my left foot, and my entire fight foot was numb. If I tried too put weight on the right foot, sharp numbing pain would engulf the right edge of my foot, and I could my ankle hurting below all the numbness I can barely walk to the bathroom now.
There is no way to sleep with both feel in intense pain non-stop. It has been four hours and I need to sleep more. This feels like the worst case scenario for my neuropathy: 24/7 intense pain and sleep only when you pass out from fatigue. Great.
