My neuropathy pain is constant, feet burn, feel swollen, toes are numb, pins and needles feeling constant. Am mostly bedridden use cane for support to get to bathroom. Have tried all the usually recommended meds: gabapentin etc. Pain effects my appetite, causing nausea, so have lost 30 lbs i am very small 5 ft now weighing 97 and very weak. Neuropathy pain burning in hands as well but not nearly as bad as feet. Lidocaine roller used to help temporarily. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

Have you tried any chair exercises or chair yoga to help build up or maintain some strength?
