Neuropathy

Posted by maxiesmom @maxiesmom, Sep 29 6:20pm

This is just a little discovery I made, maybe it will be helpful to somebody. I'm 83, in constant severe back pain, have had 4 surgeries and need 2 more but can't have them because of deteriorated bones. Neuropathy in my feet is just another painful nuisance. So I noticed my ankles swelling even though I pretty much sit in a recliner with my legs elevated all day. I put on my support stockings (with open toes) and noticed after several hours that my feet barely hurt! It's been 2 days and still very minimal burning and tingling. I hope this works for others!

Thank you everyone for your responses. Your experiences so different. Im really grateful and will weigh all the pro and cons, pain is reaching unbearable levels so might succumb.
Im sure we all long for the days when we were pain free. Thanks so much!❤️

I make up my own concoction. It is composed of a cup of dimethyl sulfoxide in aloe vera form; 1 cup or half a cup of Cerav good cream, and a bottle of foot pain that is purchased at Walmart or CVS in the USA. I'm from Canada so I bought it over there. I mixed the 3 together and add a little bit of zostrix experts contains capsacian, so be careful how much you put in because it does cause a little bit of burning and discomfort if there is too much. You mix the hell out of the 3 of them and put them on your feet and legs and initially they feel a little uncomfortable for a few minutes but after that relief sets in. It works for me that's all I can say, my own homemade remedy

@anniesezu812 no success with duloxetine, but I've been on pregabalin for 15 months. It works, more or less. I tried to stop and that was not a good experiment. I tried to drop the dose and that did not work either
