Hello, my name is Johnny Zee3, and I have Peripheral Neuropathy, brought on by an extra Protein in the Bloodstream. My pain is very similar what Diabetics suffer, but I am not diabetic.
This protien was tracked for years, because if the count increased, it can lead to Multiple Myeloma. I have been blessed, because the count has remained stable. I am taking Gabapentin, Oxicodone, and Bayer Back and body, and I wear FentynalPatch. My pain is stable at this time.

Thank you for your reply.
I suffer pain level 9 most of the day and have yet to find effective Pain relief mostly because there are no real reliable diagnostic test for CRPS.
Do u go to a Pain Center near Philadelphia ?

I have idiopathic peripheral neuropathy, which, as you may know, means that there's no known cause. I'm not diabetic, either. I've tried every medication available for peripheral neuropathy, and none has helped. I'm now taking Cymbalta at 90mg daily, and Morphine sulfate contin, at 15mg twice a day, which only means that I have occasional days with a lower level of pain. Today, my pain level ranged from a low of 4 to a high of 8. The pain, burning and numbness is in my feet, with some sensitivity in my hands. I also take Oxycodone as needed for when it's really bad. I wear gloves when I drive. Lidocaine HCI cream numbs the painful areas of my feet at bedtime so I can get to sleep. I'm seeing the pain specialist again next week, and I hope he has something to suggest.

Good luck to
You. I wish you
The very best. I just hope I can get some relief . I just have perosets from my primary care because there are some many hurdles to overcome on Penn 's Pain Clinic . I am not going back it's just too upsetting . They don't believe my symptoms !!!!

I am so sorry for your pain, @jimhd. I ordered hemp cream from CW Botanicals, but I decided not to take it becsuse it may contain 0.03%THC. I don't want to risk violating my pain contract. I gave the cream to my MIL, who has diabetic neuropathy in her feet, and arthritis in her hands. She has found immense relief from both conditions. You may want to try this cream, to see if it helps; it is legal in all states. Your disability sounds life-consuming. I hope you find relief somewhere, soon.

Thank you for your suggestion. I'll give it a try.<br><br>

You said you ordered it. Do you get a prescription for it?, or just order online from C W Botanicals?

@sistergoldenhair, no prescription is necessary. You order it online. If it says it is out of stock, call customer service and order it by phone. It has been selling so fast that for a while they switched to phone ordering only (for the cream, not the oil you put under your tongue.)
