II have had non-diabetic neuropathy for around 15 years it started slow and now has become quite painful mostly I get the pain in my toes my feet are numb and tingly I take 2700 mg of gabapentin each day I take a B12 shot. I have tried CBD oil all other kinds of topic cole lotions the lotions didn’t help at all by accident I had to walk on a rough surface around my car to keep from getting my feet wet I took off my shoes it was painful walking on the rough surface but I noticed that night my feet weren’t hurting like always a few days later I repeated the same thing and my pain in my feet lesson I started doing exercises to improve my balance standing on 1 foot getting up on the balls of my feet I do this two or three times a day for about a minute and my pain level is dropping I have even started lowering my dose of gabapentin oh I didn’t make an appointment to go to the mayo clinic and I have one in 2025 yes that’s right my appointment is in June or July 2025

My husband has neuropathy and has tried numerous treatments. What helps best is walking steps and riding
on a stationary bike.
At times he gets upset that he can’t walk better. It is very tough. His attitude is mostly upbeat, but I wish there was a treatment for the numbness in his feet and weakness in his legs.
