My neuropathy caused softening of bones in my lower leg causing a series of fractures in my foot, ankle and tibia. Five years ago it got to the point that it wasn't fixable! I had a BK Amp. I'm concerned about my other leg as it has creeping neuropathy too. I still have lightning bolts of pain ( sharp and burning). Gabapentin doesn't fixit.
Ed, I wish you the best. I’ll check back in after I’ve taken the R-alpha. Let us know if you notice any difference from the synthetic version. Blessings 🙏🏼😇💙
Hi, my name is Mary and I have been dealing with neuropathy for a few years. I take 400 mg of Gabapetin 3Xday. I also have a bottle of 100mg that I had left over from a different dosage that I use 1 at a time if I am really struggling. I have had to give so many clothes away because they hurt. If my neuropathy is acting up, I find a hot bubble bath or bath with salts. That seems to soothe things down. I had a full length Artic fox coat that I finally am getting it repurposed into a throw. This was the only surface I could rest my legs on. This neuropathy thing can drive one mad! It is so relentless and so demanding of one’s attention. I am using a mink coat for my legs now and it isn’t as good. The fox is long and breathes where the fur of the mink is short. If you have a coat or want to pick one up to repurpose, I could give you advice on what works best. Have a great Labor Day Weekend!

This caught my attention. My pain started with fractures in my heels! I was walking two miles very briskly most mornings. I've never heard of neuropathy softening bones.. Who told you that it could cause softening of the bones? Fascinating idea.

I was working full-time as a nurse and walking 3 miles every day. Right leg so numb I didn't realize I'd fractured my big toe. I was told that my neuropathy caused decreased blood flow to bones. I certainly found that to be true when I was trying to heal fractures. I did hyperbaric oxygen at wound care after BK Amp. I have burning pain right lower leg. I've been told nothing improves this like if one has other bone density issues.

So sorry to hear this. I did some reading after seeing this, and I do not have diabetic neuropathy. I have idiopathic SFN. I'll keep searching to see if it has the same risks of fracture. No one could believe - or figure out - why my heels fractured. This was seven years ago. I wore two cam boots for 3-4 months, and they gradually healed. Long before my SFN diagnosis.

6 Reactionsgshfmb - will do, let's see if it helps and I'll let you know, remaining hopeful - Ed
I'm so sorry you, too, are dealing with neuropathy. It is truly maddening and so painful.
I take 300mg Gabapentin nightly, but I find that it doesn't help much. I've added CBD+THC gummies as needed (25mg CBD + 5mg THC).
