Neuropathic pain, does anything actually work for anyone?

Hi everyone, The pregabalin was doing nothing for me except making my bladder worse, so I have been titrating off it for the last two months after almost two years on it. I had my last dose yesterday and I'm really feeling the withdrawal today but I'm just going to have to ride this feeling out as ...

Neuropathic Pain

I'm currently taking Amitriptyline for constant pain pins and needles and numbness in both hands and burning in my feet. I've not experienced any benefits and I don't think it's helping my fatigue. Two other drugs have been mentioned to me by my Neurologist Gabapentin and Pregabalin. Any one hav...

Neuropathic pain advice please

I'm looking for advice regarding neuropathic pain and various drug options. The pain in my legs is driving me crazy but I am loathe to take drugs with a myriad of side effects. Are there any reasonable options or is it trial and error?

Neuropathic pain - letting off steam!

Ooh I’m getting very grumpy with my right foot 😤 a relapse between diagnosis and starting DMD is a little bit tiresome as is trying to find ways to explain what it feels like to MS team and family. So it’s been around 3 weeks. It feels like someone is constantly twisting my foot, as if I’ve been we...
