Anyone here dealing with peripheral neuropathy?

Thank you @fredjan2016 for sharing your observation of hydro. Its a confusing mess and for me, psychological warfare. I shouldn't put myself through it but, always trying to do what's right. Drs and even Mayo preach to get off opiods and find holistic ways of helping. Well, in my opinion, holistic takes me just so far. Maybe it's time to explore new pain relief options as hydrocodone gives me 1-2 hours of take the edge off relief and I fight through til the next dose is allowed. Idk...maybe this is normal for most meds.

Your doctor shouldn't like that your pain medication isn't lasting long enough. When I had that issue, I left a voicemail with my pain medicine doctor's nurse telling them that I was in a lot of pain before time for my the next dose and what I should do about it. They were very good and called me back that day. They didn't want me to be in pain and they increased my pain medication. (I've learned never to ask them for more pain medication. If you do they think you are a junkie.) I hope they take care of your pain soon.
