I have idiopathic SF Neuropathy (diagnosed 2018). 100mg GabaPentin 6x per day. I twisted a knee 3 months ago. X-rays showed bones OK, Orthopedic said come back next year.
Question: How much does neuropathy inhibit join healing? Should I increase GP or accelerate any Orthopedic steps based on neuropathy retarding my healing?

@lgpn5094 of course we are not doctors so we should not advise anyone on this.
I will tell you, that I have had both of my knees totally replaced while having neuropathy. I didn’t notice any issues. I was not taking Gabapentin at that time either.
