Anyone here dealing with peripheral neuropathy?

I've had it since 2008. It gets worse as time passes. I was 50 when it started, I'm 64 now and can barely walk. The pain is unbearable at times. Every single day I get around 3 attacks, these are seriously mind blowing pain attacks! From the tips of my fingers to the tips of my toes! It's truly the worst pain I've ever felt!
I wish to die every second of my life!

I know exactly how you feel.
I’ve been dealing with this for 12years now, and Mr feet hurt so badly I cannot walk on them.
I’ve had several really bad episodes of pain that sent me to the hospital.
Nothing helped me and last one was in my ankles.
The pain stabbed me every second it seemed.
It lasted for 5 hrs and then I just couldn’t stand it anymore.
I also have days where I’ve had enough,so I know what you’re going thru.
The thing is is that I never know when I’ll be hit with a stabbing pain attack.
There’s not one day that passes,that I am pain free.
It really stinks!
I’m sorry for you and I hope you find some relief.😮‍💨

Hello @cavtanker, I would like to add my welcome along with @harley22 and others. Neuropathy can be unbearable at times for a lot of us and it helps to learn as much as you can about the condition and the different treatments that may help provide some relief. Here's some information from the Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy that might give you more information on what's available - https://www.foundationforpn.org/therapies/.

There are also many different discussions in the Neuropathy Support Group where others have shared what helps them. Here's the list of discussions in the group if you want to scan through them or search for specific treatments - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/neuropathy/.

Hoping you can find some relief soon.
