@cmartinjr, You may need to adjust the gabapentin to get a better dose at night for sleeping without the tingles, needles, and burning. I do not handle gabapentin well during the day and have found medical cannabis to control the pain quite well.
However, for nighttime medication, I take 1200 mg of gabapentin and a cannabis tincture. It works very well and even assures that when I wake up in the morning, the pain will be moderate.
Keep experimenting with dosages and medications that can help. Let me know if you want more information on medical cannabis. Be safe and protected tonight. Chris

Thanks for the info, but I sleep well at night. I am very blessed there. My pain is during the day and very bad when on my feet. I also experience times of cold feet and maybe later the same day burning feet. It seems my feet can not tolerate pressure of standing or tight socks or shoes. I have tried several meds with no good results, but going back now and trying Gabapentin again, increasing the dosage. I have also tried CBD from a local supplier without any improvement in the pain. However, I have not tried or don't know Where to get Decarb CBD. My family Dr has been helpful in trying different meds and I have seen 2 Neurologists and they seem to know nothing about neuropathy. Can you share more about how to get Decarb CBD? Thanks for your interest in helping those of us that don’t know where to go next.
