I have non-diabetic neuropathy. Pain, numbness, and tingling in legs and feet. I take 60 mg/day of Cymbalta. I am taking Gabapentin and experiencing with dosages and timing of them. What is the minimal amount of gabapentin that seems to work for you?

@dodgebob, @issacmrobinson77, @dipperlip1 and others may have some thoughts on timing the dosages of gabapentin.

Has your doctor offered any suggestions based on your symptoms?

I worked my way up to high
doses, with minimal relief, and had memory issues with Cymbalta. The only one of those type meds that help me is Lyrica. For the burning, I use a balm of carrier oils, several Essential Oils, and beeswax. This balm helps greatly with burning feeling— for many years it eliminated burning completely and immediately.
