I’ve suffered from cidp for the past 5 years and it’s just flared up again quite badly. Back on steroids but feeling pretty rubbish to be honest. How is everyone else coping with it?

    Thank you. It’s where your immune system attacks your nerve endings and you get horrific nerve pain and numbness in your hands and feet. Thank you for your message.

    Your welcome 

    I know about nerve pain I have peripheral neuropathy in my hands and foot and leg . Also nerve pain in my amputated leg which is strange as it feels like it's where there is no leg 

    Look forward to seeing you around
