I have been suffering with neuropathy for 3 or 4 years most profoundly in the last 2 years mostly in my legs. Shooting pains grip my lower legs mostly at night preventing me from sleep. In the last few weeks I have been mostly only able to walk with my walker and even then find my feet trembling with pain, In the last weeks my whole body has started to hurt. I feel very frightened for the future. I have been on a variety of medications non on which work. I have been on 1,000 mg. of gabapentin, morphine, Cymbalta Lyrica and others to no avail. It is no exaggeration to report that most nights I get 2 to 3 hours, of sleep at night, My doctor continues to try every drug available. I live in CCRC community and no one reports this disability. The future looks very bleak since noone has found a treatment that helps the pain.
