I have taken 600mg ALA for many years just in the morning before breakfast. I'm going to check with my Doc to see if a second dosage would help. I refuse to take gabapentin it makes me crazy. If you say to the Doc, you have pain anywhere the first thing they recommend is gabapentin which, is the substitute for Opioids.
Love this site I'm now checking out reconditions for socks and shoes. Keep the conversations going!

@saj91 Gabapentin makes me too dizzy. Compression socks help a bit. The more extra wrapping on feet just adds a little more comfort.

@saj91 I stopped taking the ALA because it can cause diarrhea which I've been fighting since my chemo began 5 months ago. The chemo has ended but not the diarrhea. Ask 3 things I was taking to help with the neuropathy can result in diarrhea. My lumpectomy is tomorrow and I'm hoping for few nodes removed. My hair is coming back but the neuropathy, rash and diarrhea don't seem to be getting better.
