Anyone here dealing with peripheral neuropathy?

Hello! I have had neuropathy in my feet for years controlled by lyrica. I was put on dosages of string antibiotics in February fir a bone infection with weekly blood work to watch my labs. My doctor did not watch my labs and the antibiotics damaged my kidneys and caused neuropathy in my hands and feet. I cannot drive, cook, do simple household chores or work at this time. I was an active person until now. Had six doctors taking care of me snd none have any advise on dealing with this so I have chose to try a neuropathy clinic on my own. My insurance will not cover the treatments but know I have to try something. Does anyone have any advice?

Hello @lolamaek20, Welcome to Connect. I'm sorry to hear the string antibiotics for your bone infection made things worse for your neuropathy and damaged your kidneys. Are you able to seek help at a major teaching hospital or major health facility like the Mayo Clinic?
