You could try the lowest dosage of Gabapentin and take it at bedtime.

I found that Gabapentin caused severe swelling of my legs and upper body. The only things that works on me for PN is to alternately soak my toes in hot and cold water twice a day. That opens up the blood vessels allowing for increased flow of oxygenated blood to my toes.
