I have seen people suggesting Pregablin as an alternative to Gabapentin.
Have you ever been a candidate for a spinal cord stimulator or a pain pump?

Hi, thanks for your response. I had a stimulus put in in 2013 and a new one in 2022. Does not help my feet and bottom calves which feel like they are over a fire pit all night.

I'm on PreGabalin for neuropathic issues. Since meds that affect the nervous system [GabaPentin, PreGabalin, Metaxalone] don't do anything for my current pain my logic circuits lead me to believe that it's not nerve related. The spine person I saw at Mayo didn't suggest it.
