Hello!
I am delighted with your post! A miracle in relief!
I too posted that my neurologist prescribed an old anti-depressant, Nortriptyline 20 mg for nerve pain after taking Gabapentin and Acupuncture (worked for 2 days). I was in constant burning pain in legs and feet since it is believed, after a Covid vaccine booster two years. I have never been the same. All my blood work is normal and I went through EMG's, etc. I started taking Nortriptyline and after only 3 days started with relief. It is six weeks now! I am thrilled!!!
All that said, I am pain free and not depressed. Constant pain is debilitating!!

Perhaps, some anti-depressants could help other folk dealing with same issue. Let's hope the news gets out and in particular, this group of persons who are suffering also. I highly recommend seeing a Neurologist. They are very sophisticated and know current meds/procedures to help. A GP is a generalist. With this issue, a Neurologist!

Best,

I researched sideffects and not only the number but when I got to Sexual Its a no go for me My doctor added Finasteride for my BPH and my Libido went to Zero and Orgasm completely stopped. Doc will probably yell at me but we have a 52 year marriage and she is like a Rabbit. I still take Tamsulosin for BPH

Hi, thanks for your post. I was interested in it because of the connection to Covid. My nephropathy went from a 1 to an 8 or 9 right after the second shot. It's been a challenge from then until today.
