Neuropathy Pain at Night: What helps?
Neuropathy | Last Active: 4 days ago | Replies (272)Comment receiving replies
I have severe foot neuropathy in my feet burning numbness pins and needles it's horrible. from walking on floor joists and roof rafters for many years. what works for. y pain is a high dose of Gabapentin and Norco. Like I am saying it takes away the pain but not the numbness. I was in total hell until I started the gabapentin sleepless nights, again it was horrible 😫 !

I have similar symptoms and use cyclobenzaprine 5 mg. one tablet at bedtime along with 2 extra strength Tylenol. This lets me sleep painlessly!
Gabapentin did nothing for me.
Be happy for less pain, the numbness might not improve. I have no pain so I can live with numbness in my toes and finger tips.
I also have neuropathy for many years. My doctor would not let me take gabapentin, I take one 0.125mg mirapex at night and it is gone immediately.

Welcome @robertspen7, It's good to hear that the gabapentin provides relief for your neuropathy pain. I only have numbness with my neuropathy and it didn't help me at all so I stopped taking it after discussing it with the neurologist. There are some discussions on the numbness symptoms of neuropathy if you want to scan through them - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/search/?search=neuropathy+numbness.
