Posted by wilcy @wilcy, Jul 24, 2019

Started vaping with high potential medical marijuana! Have neuropathy in feet and starting in hands! About to be in wheelchair! It doesn’t even relax me! Any suggestions?

Has anyone tried Duloxetine? My latest Dr. at the VA Medical Center suggested I try it for all the terrible pain.
I have taken a capsule for 6 days not and am always sick to my stomach, dizzy, and lots of nausea. Not sure how long I should give all this a try, but am desperate for any kind of help/advice I can get. Thank you 1031frs#gmail.com Semper Fi

Hi Fred, There have been quite a few members who have shared their experience with Duloxetine. You might want to scan through these discussions and comments I found using a search of Connect - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/search/discussions/?search=Duloxetine

I would try different strains of marijuana. They can be different. You may also want to try Kratom, which can also be quite relaxing and help pain. I get mine from Happy Hippo, on line. You buy a slow strain, which is quite relaxing and helps pain. Some CBD drops and salve, applied directly to the feet, can help. Not all Kratom or CBD drops are equal, in any way, so buying quality products are essential. I have done extensive research, and like the products I buy. The pain of neuropathy is so hard to bare. I wish you well. I try to keep as busy as I possibly can, and when it is way too much, I will do the CBD drops or Kratom. The darn meds for Neuropathy seem to do little. Good luck. Lori Renee

What is the name of the salve from Mary Jane’s Medicinals and specifically what is the magnesium lotion? Where do you buy them? What ratio do you use of the two when you mix them together?
