Hello @milliemoose, Welcome to Connect. It sounds like you and your husband have been dealing with neuropathy for a long time. I don' t have any pain with my neuropathy but do take supplements to hopefully slow the progression of the neuropathy. I shared my neuropathy journey in another discussion here - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/310341/.

There are quite a few discussions and comments from members on over the counter supplements. Here is a search of Connect with links to member discussions and comments on supplements for neuropathy if you want to scan through them - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/search/.

Can you share a little more about your neuropathy diagnosis and symptoms Gabapentin is helping?

@johnbishop We are both retired. My husband’s neuropathy is associated with his back and his diabetes. When he is not taking Gabapentin he can hardly walk due to the burning and pain in his feet and his Right thigh burns from his back. His diabetes is well controlled over the last 4 years A1C is consistently 5.6 now. Prior his diabetes was uncontrolled and very brittle diabetic taking insulin 4 times a day and as needed. I have neuropathy in my feet. Originally I was told it was restless leg and given lyrica which did nothing for the burning, tingling and stabbing shooting pain. Finally the pain management doctor I was using started me on gabapentin. I have been on 1200 for several yrs now and it controls the sx. I retired as an RN after 38 years. If not for Gabapentin I probably would not have worked as long as I did.
