Hello @techraw and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I can see you are interested in connecting with @sunnyflower so I've used the "@mention" feature to notify her of your interest. You may use that to send a notification to another member that you want to connect as well as reply directly to a comment they've made. I hope that helps!

That said, as you wait for Sunnyflower, would you give a little bit of background on your neuropathy history?

Hi Amanda, I have neuropathy from my knrrdown to my feet. That section of my leg is very numb and I have no feeling in my feet. I was just wondering if there was some treatment or medication that could keep the pain relieved. I have had this problem for many years and it affects me twenty-four hours a day.

I had surgery in my right knee about 40 years ago. The doctor took out about 15% of the cartilage and my leg is now pointing towards the right below my knee and I am bone on bone on the right side of my knee joint. I have severe pain in my right knee that throbs about number 8 out of 10 along with my neuropathy. Pain meds don't help!

Any helpful suggestions? Thanks. Ron
