Suggest Treatment For Pain, Tingling Sensation And Numbness In Feet
I have severe pain, burning, stinging, tingling and numbness in both feet and both hands. I currently take the following meds for neuropathy, 1. Neurontin (1200mg 3x day) 2. Amitryptiline (25mg nightly) 3. Cymbalta (60mg 2x day) 4. Norco (10mg 4x day) 5. Oxycodone (5mg 4x day) I am only 38 yrs old. I get moderate relief from the pain apprx 60%. Yet I only get, at best, 40% relief from the other symptoms. Please, I am in desperate need of help. I have 2 teenagers living at home and usually I have to depend on them for help with my daily needs. Because of my age I am having trouble getting disability benefits and most Dr. s think I am exaggerating the amount of pain I feel. Please is there any advice I can get?
