Hi, Malcolm, Well it went OK. It hurt some, but was bearable. I did jump off one needle when he hit a particularly bad spot, but he was behind me, so I didn`t get to kick him!! Actually the zappers were worse than the needles. Now I have to wait to find out what it all means! If it is just diabetes, how did I get neuropathy when I never had a fasting blood glucose go over normal??? Weird. Still think it is damage from the Lyme buggies. Marshalee
