@surayabay24 Not sure about cramps but Voltaren gel works quite well for my painful feet and knees. It might be worth a try?

2 ReactionsLune Cream so far has given best temporary relief.
@jillb329 Upstate Elevator is the best brand you can buy them online.
@tbucksr tightening which leg muscles and how??? I'd love to try as my nighttime neuropathy is really tough.
@jillb329 I haven’t been asked so I’ll just break in.
I have used CBD for several yrs as my PN pain has increased. It needs to be applied 2 or more times daily do its effects increases and lasts longer, several hours.
Thestronger the better in mg. I wouldn’t waste my money on smaller dose. I use 5000 mg per tube and it
I'm looking at a study online now--says that CBD was ineffective for PN pain, burning, but they only seemed to measure at 50 mg. and I am using 25 mg or so, so you would say that that is entirely too low a dose then? thanks for your reply. Caleb
@pamfitz How much vit B do you take now? Did your dr approve it?
Yes, I was taking 600 mcg of vitamin B-12 daily. After some months, my B-12 levels were then at the lower end of the normal range. Still my doc recommended that I increase it so now I am taking 1000 mcg daily. The peripheral neuropathy in my feet has all but disappeared. This may not work for everyone but it can't hurt to have your B-12 levels checked when you go in for routine bloodwork.
I hope you talk with your primary care physician before taking any over the counter medicines.
I have been taking Gabapintin 300mg x 6 daily.( cancer pain relief) for 13 years,
Is it possible that this med is causative to my diagnosis of Neuropathy?
