Hello @bawina, Welcome to Connect. I know it's difficult trying to deal with chronic pain when your current treatment doesn't seem to be helping. I'm glad to see that you are searching for information and advocating for your own health. I only have numbness with my peripheral neuropathy so am fortunate in a sense that there are no pain drugs that help with the numbness. There are a couple of discussions you might find helpful while we wait for other members to share their experiences with what has helped with their neuropathy pain.

@rwinney, @budo7, @greenacres, @kenc and others may also have some experience or suggestions to share with you.

Have you heard of or tried Myofascial Release Therapy (MFR)?

I have researched MFR and thank you for the information. I will read through it shortly.
