Tammy, to me it sounds like PAWS that you have described, similar to what I experienced up to about 10 to 12 weeks when it began to improve and has continued getting much better. Over 4 months now, doing great. Stressful situations will ratchet the numbing, but most of the time just wonderful. The exercise and nutrition is so important, really helps. Stick with what you are doing, it will get better pretty soon.
