I am 76 yr old female who has been suffering with neuropathy esp. in right foot and lower leg for about 2 years. I use gabapentin 2400mg daily as well as Low Dose Naltrexone for pain. Had total knee replacement February 1, 2023. Had to go off LDN prior to surgery. I have had unrelenting ,excruciating pain ever since the replacement. Currently using 10mg oxycodone plus gaba with little relief. I know they will be taking me off pain med soon (opiate crisis) and I do not know if I will be able to survive the pain. Has this kind of pain happened to any one and what did you do for relief? I have just been "sick" for the last month with daily nausea and inability to do anything. Feel as if I am not going to make it through this.

Hello @jackdonn99, Welcome to Connect. So sorry to hear about the terrible pain following the knee replacement. It sounds like the pain may be different from the neuropathy pain you had prior to the knee replacement. Is the leg with the pain the same one that had the knee replacement?
