i’m trying to be positive i really am, i was a very active wife mom, and my job, now my balance is wobbly im embarrassed to go anywhere , looks like im drunk or sumthin , im in alot of pain but only take gabapentin. My PCP won’t give me anything for pain so she referred me to a pain clinic and she didn’t wanna give me any pain medicine. She wanted to put me on some sort of patch that was lasted three days buprenorphine patch or something like that.? i refused , ny copper was very low , 5 normal is 140 i get iron infusions once a year , b12 shots , idk .. im soo hopeless .. I feel like nobody will listen and I’m being medically gaslit. and being denied pain meds bcuz of the way i look .

Had two stents put in me two months ago on left leg. Now my right leg numb all the time . Going no where with this neuropathy. Pills and garbage never had this problem before. I’m lucky I get two hours of sleep a night.

accupuncture helped me with pain - it's gone. I still have numbness. For the past 8 months I have been weating barefoot shoes exclusively and for the past month or so, I have been using magnesium lotion mixed with a drizzle of castor oil on my feet (careful, it makes them slippery). I have found both helped. I still have numbness but it seems to have improved.
