I’ve had Neuropathy over 30 years and a number of the drugs used to treat it now weren’t yet available. Not long after Neurontin became available I started taking it. Even though I took the maximum dose of 3,600mg I got no relief from seizures or Neuropathy. I took various opioids including fentanyl which helped me the most. I don’t remember how quickly my Neuropathy progressed other than in the beginning it was very painful and about 10 years ago my feet became numb.
Take care,
Jake

@jakedduck1 Wow, that is a very long time...what a trooper you are!! I hope not to progress to Fentanyl, but Gaba barely takes the edge off right now. Still playing around with dosage right now. Thank you for the info, that was very helpful. I’m so sorry you’ve been in pain for SO long ... I wish you all the pain-free, joyous days in the world!
