From this list ONE Peripheral Neuropathy.
As a follow on I have a symptom that is maddening to me that I have not seen much if any.. mention of; Excess Salivation. This is socially offensive to me personally and it is tied directly to the body's sensitation to toxic compounds. Any other similiar occurences out there?

My husband died of Multiple Myeloma that caused complete kidney failure (End Stage Renal Disease). He was diagnosed in January of 2006 due to the kidney failure, started dialysis and treatment for the Myeloma then. His MD stated that he had a very agressive form of Myeloma. Norm made it two years and died this January. I miss my partner dearly.

Is the pole closed ?
0, I have zero
but;
I have neuropathy, have been treated by the VA since 1986 for symptoms. NON SERVICE CONECTED until 1991, was diagnosed at the SF VA Hospital as Multiple Sclerosis (MS) rated 50%. (PoA was DAV)
In 1994 I had to quit work due to the symptoms & was increased to 75%, filed a disagreement using PVA and was rated 100% Service connected.
Also;
After treatment for PTSD in 1993, was rated 100% service connected.
So that is my Journey.
Yours in Faith,

Simone,
I requested through Marcie several months ago to use your posts in my correspondence with my Representatives...do you remember? I ask that just to refresh your memory and say you have been in my thoughts and prayers every day since then. FIND PEACE IN THE LORD!
