Hello @vtgvtctclara
I am so sorry that you have such pain!!!! Most of us that are experiencing neuropathy have great empathy for your situation. I have to say that Gabapentin has help me with my pain but I am on a high dosage. Everyone responds to medication differently and you have to find what works for you….. many of us offer advice and what works for us so perhaps you will find something that helps soon. I have also found that anything that contributes to an immunologic episode makes my neuropathy pain worse. If I have a day that I have high sugar intake I truly pay for it. It is very difficult but I try to eat healthy and eat large amounts of fruits and vegetables and protein. I also find that if I over exert myself I pay and have increased pain for days.
You have to find what is right for you. I have also found that physical therapy and exercise also helps decrease my pain. The worst part of my day is at night, pain just seems to be the worst, so I have increased my gabapentin and try to stay hydrated. Please stay in touch and let us know how you are doing. You have great support with this group!
Kim
