1 ReactionGabapentin didn't work for me either because leg pain and the rest, are probably caused by poor circulation.
Sit in a chair and do 15 left/right fast foot taps or more to get the circulation going. There are more chair exercises for your legs on YouTube. Works for me, hope for you too. Vyolet

1 ReactionTry a foot vibrator. I bought this at Costco a few years ago I have neuropathy in the ball of my feet and my toes. I wrap my toes around the bar at the top, vibrating my toes and the ball my feet.

1 Reaction@duchess926 I've heard this works well, but it is prohibitively expensive for me. My PN is idiopathic and nothing has worked. It's went from burning in my feet to my legs and now bottom half of buttocks. I don't know how to handle this severe unrelenting pain...
@cynbell Nerve pain is a horrible way to live….I wish I knew of something…I am researching nutrients like Astaxathin and trying Wild Olive Oil which is different from regular Olive Oil. Also look for devices that work on the Vagus Nerve because it might help with nerve pain….it’s a major nerve in the body.

2 Reactions@duchess926 thank you! I will look into that for sure, I am open to anything at this point...and always have been.
Is there any relief for neuropathy? Mine has really kicked in!
@mzlovely - Look up Scrambler Technique…I found out about it thru the
Mayo Clinic. It’s non-invasive and not painful….it’s the only nerve pain treatment around…
