Anyone here dealing with peripheral neuropathy?

Hello @awroberts111, Welcome to Connect. You mentioned you have been taking gabapentin for your neuropathy pain in your ankles and feet for the past 9 years. It sounds like a good thing that you haven't seen the neuropathy progress further up your legs. I think it's good that you are seeing a neurologist in a few days. Were you diagnosed with neuropathy when the gabapentin treatment was started?

I was diagnosed with neuropathy when the gabapentin treatment was started. I have not noticed the neuropathy progress up my legs. I have seen several neurologists, but to no avail.
Apparently, after many MRIs, the last neurogist discovered a slight bump in my spinal chord, which suggeted an irregularity inside the chord, near T11. Apparently the many previous MRIs did not discover it. It was apparently less than a cm, too small for MRIs to detect it.
