I have had neuropathy in my limbs over the years. Lyrica has never done me any good. Tramadol and turmeric work better. Plain turmeric, 1/4 tsp in 6 oz of warm water works better. As for Lyrica, sneezing on a frog works better.

Ha! never tried sneezing on a frog yet! I'm on warfarin and my INR nurse does not want me to take turmeric. I am ok, sort of, with the hydrocodone, but since I don't have a solid diagnosis, I just want to know what the heck is wrong with me for sure. I do have all the symptoms of small fiber neuropathy and none of the ones for lupus, rheumatolic arthritis.. Did you have the skin biopsy?

That’s encouraging to hear your experience regarding turmeric. I have tried everything from the common prescription drugs, CBD oils, creams and several supplements but give up on it all except a few choice vitamins and my daily dose of turmeric. I really believe it helps a lot but I do not see many examples of people commenting on turmeric at least in the effectiveness regarding PN. I was wondering if it was the placebo effect or if turmeric really does help. I think it does. I feel better just using turmeric. I would like to hear others experience if indeed they gave this a good honest go.
