What treatment helps for feet neuropathy?

It really is about trial and error-I have a great medical team--PCP, Pain Management , neurologist-I have had PN for about 2 years--started off as spinal issues and then POOF! In the beginning 30 years ago the shots helped with the Spineissues. Then now I am on Gabapentin, Baclofen, Tramadol, Celebrex, Duloxetinefor depression. No matter what I try to do some exercise--feels great when I am doing it but then I pay for it for two days. I keep trying things-lately with certain creams --Lidocaine, Vrekef urea cream--feet feel better but my balance is now of and leg weakness--this is a blast isnt it.. It really is about management and reveling in any type of positive feelings. I have accepted that I wont be normal and do what I can--good luck!!! Tyrone L

Tyrone,
I've tried most every cream on the market. They do work, but for such a short time! I know what you mean about the leg weakness. It's been only a few months now that I've noticed that, and I hate it. Sometimes even to do grocery shopping, I have to stop and give my legs a rest just to be able to continue my shopping. I have been doing the exercises that my pt gave me for leg strengthening, and they do help, but its a slow process and some days, just discouraging to have this happening. One day at a time, I keep reminding myself.
