VGSDs: a potential breakthrough on the horizon for neuropathy pain?

Greetings, I'm not adverse to stopping pain, but what I REALLY want is something to stop the progression of my nerve damage! The pain, tingling, numbness, etc wasn't bad till I went in the hospital for a bad infection. I was pumped full of all kinds of ? and came out with a much worse case of PN. I will not take gabapentin and the other drugs recommended. I use lidocaine, herbal rub ons, CBD, all which work fine for a while. CBD/CBN gummies at night are wonderful for restless legs and pain and sleep.! For worse pain I use 1/2 tab of codeine & tylenol. As I'm sure the condition will worsen I am desperately looking for a remedy.
I also would like to find a clinic that deals directly with PN in the southwest area.

Thanks to all,
lauren

Hi Lauren, You are not alone in looking for a remedy. A lot of us have shared our neuropathy journey and what has helped us in another discussion here - Member Neuropathy Journey Stories: What's Yours?: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/member-neuoropathy-journey-stories-whats-yours/.

If you haven't already seen it, the Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy has a list of complementary and alternative treatments that folks with neuropathy have found helpful here - https://www.foundationforpn.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Complementary-and-Alternative-Treatments-Revised-2020-final.-1.pdf.
