My husband has terrible neuropathy in his legs-what medication will help him best with the constant pain? Also I have 3 herniated disks in lower back and can not even walk a block any more. the pain is greatest when I bend or stand for more than 5 minutes. I spend a great deal of time on a heating pad and sitting in my recliner. We both have very poor qualities of life. Thank you for ay help you can give us.
