How can I get a second opinion from a skin specialist (dermatologist) to confirm if my Hansen's disease (leprosy) has returned, since my severe joint pain and numbness have come back and the Tryptomer 10 mg prescribed for fibromyalgia is not helping?

It is to experience returning numbness and joint pain, especially when Tryptomer (amitriptyline) isn't helping. To get a second opinion, you can ask your primary doctor for a referral to a dermatologist, preferably one at a tertiary care hospital or a specialized referral center experienced in Hansen's disease. These symptoms could be a reaction state or related to other nerve issues, both of which are manageable. Please know that you are not alone, and getting a specialist's evaluation will help give you clear answers and the right care.
