@user_ch98d0b5c - Well, I fit that condition...idiopathic peripheral neuropathy. Unlike John, mine comes with a ton of pain. The possible cause may be previous injuries like falling off horses and down mountains. I am happy to offer what does and does not work for me to provide some relief. Just let me know and I can send you a private message or post for all.

I’m a victim of peripheral neuropathy too. Can you tell me what works for you?

I just read your post about neuropathy pain and I also would like you to send me information on what helps !
Thank You,
Donald Goss

Please post. I would like to hear your successes/suggestions. Thx for sharing and volunteering.
I am new here.

Hi Chris, I have a bulb neuroma and scar tissue from two prior surgeries on the toes of my right foot. I have been told by a podiatrist that he can't do anything else for me and suggested I see a pain management doctor. Do you or any of your followers have any suggestions on how to treat this problem of pain in my toes? Thanks

Please post any pills that help! My doc says:”so you’ve got arthritis all over! Take pain pills! 😳

Hi Chris, Any suggestions to relieve the burning pain 24 hrs a day? It has been ten years now and relief would be wonderful!!! I have no balance also and use a walker. I used to show and ride my horses also but don't believe that effected this problem Need relief!!!!!!

Please post for all. Every little bit might help someone. I’m a retired nurse. I was taking Tramadol for several years for my back. When the feet started driving me crazy, with tingling and burning, my pain dr. put me on Gabapentin. All I wanted to do was sleep. He said that would go away. And it did.
So for the most part it helped me for several years. I know the next drug will be Lyrica and I don’t want that.
I have progressed from Tramadol to Norco and I won’t go any further. I’m 78 and maybe coming to my end of life
But my father made it to 94. In a veteran’s home with very little enjoyment.
I’m not increasing my drugs from now on. 🫰🏻Just staying with my meds & vitamins. Voltaren on my feet at night.
I hope this has helped someone.

Hi, I am in this same boat with non diabetic neuropathy and no one has found an answer for me as to the cause. So it sounds like medication might be the only answer for managing the pain. It certainly hinders my normal activities such as yard work etc. I am on Gabepenten which helps a bit, but I resist going on something stronger .
I would really appreciate it if you could share publicly what works for you. Thanks.

I'd love to hear from you
