Neuropathy: Numbness only, no pain

lecowing - Yes, similar issues - I have given up wearing button down collars on shirts and although majority of numbness is south of knees to toes, I now dump pills on a towel otherwise I'm chasing capsules across the table. My handwriting is terrible, so I now print everything and even that, at times, is questionable. I also have loss of strength in hands.... bottle caps are a problem. All hand issues in past 2 - 3 years and very gradual, unfortunately, like the feet. On the numbness, I've also tried CBD cream on ankles, feet, hands with no help. I did find it helps on lower back pain. Any recommendations for numbness reduction would be great! Ed

For me, I am on several medications and serious numbness—can literally squeeze my toes or poke them with a pin with no feeling. Toes to thighs and forearm to fingers are at varying degrees of numbness. I am on several meds including Lyrica and Tramadol, That still leaves me with burning legs and feet—the only relief for that is a CBD balm with some essential oils. Relief is very quick and usually works for 6-8 hours. Some companies, like Lazarus, give large discounts for ability to pay and military service.
