I've had severe pn for over 6 years. It seems that I've tried most of everything here and currently use a hefty dose of gabapentin (18000) and I hate the stuff. It gives me some relief, but as with all things for me, after some time it seems that I need to up the dosage. Some have suggested Vicks and it has eucalyptus oil in it. I've started experimenting with essential oils and it has given me some new modest relief. There are alot of eo's out there that reduce inflammation and improve vasodilation. These are powerful and must be used with caution. I only use them in a cream form and dilute the eo's using one drop with several ounces of olive oil. You can learn much more on the web. Please become self-educated before you start playing with the stuff. It can burn the heck out of your feet. Also I'd stay away from vaporing and consuming. Just my two cents. Steve
