Anyone here dealing with peripheral neuropathy?

Hi, Lori Renee. I've been taking 800-1,200 mg/day of ErgoMax (and sometimes OptiPEA) for chemo-induced neuropathy since last October. It took about 3-4 weeks before relief set in for me. For the first time in about year, I was sleeping through the night, most nights... no burning feet/legs/hands. I still occasionally use Topricin's Fibro Cream on my legs and feet about 15 minutes before bedtime if it's been a rough day. No, neither one does anything for the numbness/stiffness... but it has relieved the burning about 90% of the time which for me has been a blessing.

elizm , thanks a bunch for the info. I am definitely thinking of trying the PEA again. I will buy the Topricin, as folks are saying good things about it. I am so sorry about your neuropathy being chemo induced. Mine started just weeks after a lumpectomy, in which there was radiation right into the tumor, during surgery. I never had chemo. Crazy what happens. I also hope your cancer is under control. God, what we go through. I know the burning, throbbing, stabbing, of neuropathy. What a way to live...anyway,, thanks for the info. God Bless, Lori Renee
