It sounds like you have tried a lot of treatments with limited success. The Foundation for Neuropathy has a list of complementary and alternative treatments, along with a list of supplements that are known to help nerve pain here - https://www.foundationforpn.org/treatments/.
Have you tried any supplements to see if they might help?
Dreamscape, I can empathize. I have been the gambit! I will make this brief. I'm in a health care system that does not condone drug use. That said, they have administered drug after drug but I'm allergic to 85-90 %! Leaving me with an episode of anaphylactic shock and/or prescribing two (2) Rx from the same family-enough said about that nightmare!
Because I am a product of Vietnam and the sixties I finally had to seek other avenues for pain relief. I tried every and all manner of drugs and at the same time walking a tight rope because of the clear possibilities that I would get stoned or I would fail the UA test. But then I found what works <<for me>> I use the edible THC/CBD Candy!
I will not say that it stops all of the pain but it does reduce it to a mild roar. I apologize for not keeping this brief...
