Neuropathy symptoms are worse when I sit or lay down: Anyone else?

Do you take gabapentin?

I have read that you should get up and move around walk every 15 20 minutes for a few minutes.I have neuropathy and degenerative disc they seem to work toghether in stiffness and slight pain.I thank God it is not terrible or even moderately severe like it was after they sent me to physical therapy and my back really flaired up.

always worse in the evening from inactivity in my case, came shortly after tkr. i take gabapentin but only before bedtime around 9-9:30pm, 1-2 hours before retiring for the evening. during the day and when i awake, it's fine. no one knows why, i learned to accept and live with it.
good luck

Thanks,I started on 100mg gaba,3 times a day now much more.I have many days I forget to take my morning meds and dont even have pain.But if I forget my night time or eat too many carbs or too late,I feel like I have woke up in hell

Mine is worse at night and during rainy weather.Anyone else having more pain in bad weather? I am in a wheelchair and don't get any exercise.
I would love to hear if anyone else has more pain when it rains.I'm sure the thinking might be an old wives tail well, I am an old old wife.

I recently started testing after I eat 2 hours after I eat at night and even when I feel like I'm starving I test and sometimes my glucose level will be 180 or 200 or so maybe even a little more and so I don't eat anymore that night and my A1C has gone down to 6.1 yesterday when I got my blood work done at the doctors I'm doing a lot better I eat avocados and salads and peanut butter and good good whole wheat bread no white bread at all no pasta no ice cream I do eat some carbmaster yogurt from Kroger's my neuropathy still seems to be getting a little bit worse so I'm trying to look into seeking help for that before it gets too bad I need to be able to get around I'll soon be 74 and I am caregiver to my 72-year-old wife who doesn't get around very much and who doesn't cook right now

I also just started eating avocados blueberries stuff like that bananas I don't know I'm not sure if the bananas are really good but I I eat them because they help my stomach with the acid acid because they are alkaline at least that's what I read

I'm really concerned about the coffee it helped me feel better in the morning when I'm real achy when I get up but sciatica and degenerative disc and so forth but I read somewhere that the caffeine is not good on your nerves so I'm worried about it temporarily making me feel better but in the long run maybe hurting my neuropathy

I think dampness and cold make a difference.
I would recommend trying tai. chi might like it
I have always wanted to learn from an instructor
Tapes and tv are hard for me.I am 73 I still hav muscle memory of karate and kenpo
I do the moves except for kicks.I just slow them down and add a few tai chi moves I have learned
God bless you.

I had similar symptoms 4 months before my feet started burning. My arms would fall asleep when I slept with them slightly raised . Rash ? I have a titanium implant . And the neuropathy went away when he clean it up for a revision only problem is he put more titanium in there and it came back worse.
