Aching legs from Small Fiber Neuropathy

Hi. I also have achy legs, especially at night that literally prevents me from sleeping. I take a lot of CBD oil and B vitamins and have massage therapy but truthfully nothing works. During the day the pain subsides but I always have the weakness and heavy leg feel as well. I tried Gabapentin but does not work for me and I took 1 Pregabalin 25 mg once and it blurred my vision so I never took anymore but I am considering trying this again as I read it is very helpful for some people with pain. What works best for you.

Hello there. Interestingly enough, last night I forgot my Pregabalin (Lyrica) dose 100 mg 2x day and was 7 hours past due. My body fired up beyond its normal craziness and I thought....Wow, it really does work for certain things!
My only advice on the side effects is that often we have to tough it out in order to get to find the benefit of the drug. As long as you give it a committed try, then determine if you can't or haven't acclimated enough to continue for its benefit. Trial and error I'm afraid. Good luck.
