Good evening @billjim651 and thanks for your post suggesting that you may try gabapentin. It was the first prescription I was given 5 or 6 years ago. Initially, 1200 mg was too much for me. Gabapentin and I had a rough start. What did work for me was nortriptyline for nighttime sleep. We changed the dosage and, moved gabapentin to 900 mg in the evening. Then I tapered off Nortriptyline and replaced that with duloxetine, currently rated as one of the best Rx for neuropathy.

Gabapentin for some is a daily go-to and allows modification in dosage and the dosage time. I found out how valuable it was one night when I forgot to take it. A really bad memory. For me, this medication shuts down the machine that creates numbness, tingling, and even some gut-wrenching evening pain.

The need to be somewhat calm and relatively pain-free on a good golf day demanded the best from Medical Cannabis. You are your own clinician and pharmacist. I think you might even be able to play the back 9 after a nice lunch. Let me know if you would like specifics. Fighting this condition is a challenge. Don't give up.......knowledge is power. Dig in and learn about your options. Just make sure you don't get sucked into pricey machines and treatments. As @johnbishop reminds us.....there is no cure....just rather simple ways to get the most out of living with neuropathy.

Now that I have written this, I am missing golf.
Be safe and protected.
