Thanks. How about in U.S. English? That's where I am. If you know that one, I'd feel more confident in my sentence.

StarvinghystericalWhich one?I'd ditch the 'but' and use a semicolon. 'but nor' isn't idiomatic, at least not in AmE. 'but neither' is OK. Otherwise, both 'neither' and 'nor' are fine.
This isn't a big issue; neither/nor is it a fixable one.
