Diagnosis: Idiopathic Peripheral Neuropathy and Restless Leg Syndrome
Neuropathy | Last Active: 30 minutes ago | Replies (15)Comment receiving replies
I was diagnosed with Idiopathic Poly Neuropathy in my feet and lower legs several years ago, and like you, I experience more pain in my feet than the numbness and tingling. The numbness is still there, it causes my balance issues, since I can't feel the bottom of my feet any more.
It is definitely frustrating. I'm taking 3600 mg of Gabapentin a day to help dull the pain, but it's only marginally helping.

I am sorry that you and so many others(like myself as well)have to go through such terrible pain. Perhaps, some day, the medical community will take our plight more seriously and come up with more comprehensive answers to the pain we suffer.
3600 mg of gabapentin! I thought that my 1800 mg was a lot. Didn’t your doctor feel reluctant to prescribe that much for you?
Keep well!
