your problem is that the SOURCE of the PN must be diagnosed. Then you'll know what to do to relieve the pain. I'm afraid that will need you to keep on bugging your doctors until you get in front of one willing to work with you to get at the source. Usually these things are degenerative and occur when the person ages and originate with the core spine. Muscles get weak, discs degenerate and nerves become pinched. then, this affects the extremities. good luck.

Dear Friend: I have worked in the field of Medicine for over 35 years, both in a hospital setting and in an educational setting. Physicians from day one relies on pharmaceutical updates to keep abreast of treatments and/or medications. Assuming the Physician is good at diagnosing ailments, they do their best at matching the distress with the medication regiment. Unfortunately, in some cases, the best they can do is suggest a medication that closely has a positive effect, but in the case of a Neurological disease, to date, there are no beneficial cures or real solutions. A Mental condition (brain related) whereby tissue or stimulus issues effect peripheral nerves we use medication such as Gabapentin. There are side-effects.
Feel good aromatherapy using an atomizer seems to be effective. Give it a try, the costs low, and an abundant of people swear by the results.

Degenerative nerve disease is just that "Destruction" of once-active nerve cells. The Human body relocates as best possible, nerves pathways that best offer a solution for dying nerves. Unfortunately, like paralysis, most severed nerves lay dormant until we find a method to reconnect them. Neuropathy or nerve distress is relative to form of paralysis in as much the nerves are not 100% functional. These abnormal nerves are attempting to connect, and they cannot complete their task. They fire as usual, carry messages as usual, but end up running into a blockage as like a car hitting a wall. When the neurons smash into their wall, the event results in a sharp pain. Thus, we cannot find a cure or treatment for this painful event.
