Hello,

I can understand your concern and feel sorry for the agony you have been suffering through. The way you have had an accident is surely bound to cause you pain and as you are suffering from peripheral neuropathy, shooting pain can be understood.

However, there might be only some areas that might be giving you shooting pains of peripheral neuropathy depending on the nerves involved in the injury. As morphine is also not working for you, I would advise you to visit a neurologist who may suggest you invasive methods to get relief from pain like nerve decompression therapy etc. You can also try acupuncture.

I hope this information helps you. Thank you for choosing HCM. I wish you feel better soon.

Best,
Dr. Viraj Shah
