> I’m curious, has anyone on here actually found relief or improvement from EM? Has anyone been able to return to normal life?

Yes and yes. I live a normal life. Heck, I just took a very hot shower. 😂

Read through my old topics. My first post was March 7, 2015.

First post: [What type of doctor do you see for erythromelagia? (My story)](https://forum.livingwitherythromelalgia.org/t/what-type-of-doctor-do-you-see-for-erythromelagia-my-story/1021)

One month later: [https://forum.livingwitherythromelalgia.org/t/one-month-on-my-story-with-em/](https://forum.livingwitherythromelalgia.org/t/one-month-on-my-story-with-em/)

Propranolol? [https://forum.livingwitherythromelalgia.org/t/anyone-take-propanolol/](https://forum.livingwitherythromelalgia.org/t/anyone-take-propanolol/)

Pay dirt: [https://forum.livingwitherythromelalgia.org/t/mexiletine-450mg/](https://forum.livingwitherythromelalgia.org/t/mexiletine-450mg/)

…and still holding steady 18 months since this post: [https://forum.livingwitherythromelalgia.org/t/every-morning-i-wake-up-and-cant-believe-it/](https://forum.livingwitherythromelalgia.org/t/every-morning-i-wake-up-and-cant-believe-it/)
