I am happy to mention three years post treatment that the neuropathy in my feet has improved so very much that I have been able to get off gabapentin. I hope that his helps someone feeling like things won’t get better, they actually can. I am glad that I did manage the pain so that I could continue walking throughout treatment. I do believe that walking, moving stretching are so important for recovery. Best to you all.

Can I ask how the Gabapentin helped? I have started Amitriptyline to help me sleep and hopefully help with some of the burning and redness on the soles of my feet, but haven’t tried Gabapentin yet. Did it help immediately?
