Hi Mary, sorry to hear you are in so much pain. Like many others, my wife has severe neuropathic burning in her feet. She hates taking drugs due to the terrible side effects as well as the limited effectiveness most people describe. So anyway, the only thing she has found so far that has given her some relief is a product called Penetrex. She says it reduces her pain level about a third (e.g. from a 7 to a 4 for example) for 2-3 hours after use, which is something. In case you are not already aware of it and you are interested, you can find it on Amazon. I think others on Connect have tried it but I have not heard any feedback from anyone. I mentioned it in another post in May. Here is the page link if you'd like to see it (It's the post from Fri, May 15 6:54am):

Good luck to you Mary, hope you find some relief, Hank
