Anyone here dealing with peripheral neuropathy?

I found that Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) worked wonders for me. This is all natural with no side effects and is used for all forms of neuropathic pain. (I am unable to tolerate most prescription drugs.) I take it twice a day (400mg per pill) and sometimes 3 times a day when I have a bad flare-up. It took about 3-4 weeks before it became effective and I couldn't live without it now. You can buy it on Amazon. Look for the unadulterated form (without additives) like OptiPure, PEA-Cure, Ergomax. Trials have used up to 2000 mg/day for chemo-induced neuropathy. The unadultered form mostly comes from The Netherlands.

Hi Elizm. I just started using PEA, about 4 days ago, and I am praying it will help. I just happened upon hearing about it here. Someone was talking about it, and I started researching it, and finally bought it. Next time, I will buy the ones you suggested. I am starting on 800 mg., twice daily, for one month. I heard a Doctor from the Netherlands suggest that if you do not get relief on that dosage in a month, you can double that the next month, before giving up on it, so that is what I will do. That was from a video on you tube. I also learned that it must be taken with some sort of fat in your meal, to make sure it is absorbed. Have you heard that? Do you do that? I just read that from one person on an Amazon review. Anyway, it was utterly fabulous to read your post, and hear that you have had success. I hope that I do as well, because living in pain is utterly terrible.... Lori Renee
