MoreThe doctor has told me that I have neuropathy. I have tingling & numbness in my feet & legs. My right leg is worse. When I walk any distance it hurts from my ankle all the way above my knee. He has me on 600MG neurotin 3X daily. It does help the tingling and numbness, but I still can't walk any distance.
Thanks for your help in advance.

This is a reply to # 585,470Billie> We are all different so let me respond with my experiences.
You make it sound like you were unaware of the neuropathy until the Dr. told you. My neuropathy has been developing for 9 years. A new quack insisted on a $3600 nerve conduction test to varify I had it. Don't you love doctors?
My neuropathy started in the left foot & toes, moved to the right foot, same area. Then through the years it numbed my feet until the last 2-3 years when it moved up my legs. The worst thing for me was numb ankles !!!!!
I can only imagin how this will feel in the knees!
I took neurotin for a very short period, it really messed up my head and gave me super hearing. I get flashbacks of this from time to time.
I have seen on TV attorneys advertising for people who have taken neurotin, I think it is because of a sucide side effect.
Here is the latest thing I have found that helps. I have had two doctors suggest I stop a particular high blood pressure medicine and get on vitamin theraphy.
It has helped!
I inject myself with b12 once a week and take b1 orally.
I have less pain and think I can feel a little on the bottom of my feet. They hurt more now but don't know if that is from improving nerves. Most of my feet are beyound pain so to feel anything is a suprise.
My suggestion is to force yourself to walk or do something with your legs.
I had the worst conduction my neurologist had ever seen and said I should not be walking. BTW - if you saw me you would not know anything was wrong with me.
I have worked out and been active for the last 40 years, the speculatin is that this is what has me to adapt to the neuropathy and walk.
My simple explination is that what allows me to walk is tha pain. With the pain I think I know where my feet are.
Oh yeah I don't take any drugs for the neuropathy. I can block most of the pain with my mind but I really crave asprin which is a blood thinner and can't take that.
I respond to asprin very well and it has proven to me that much of my pain and tingling is probably inflimation of the nerves.
Good luck with your fight.

MoreThis is a reply to # 585,495Hi sug - I've realised I seemt o have a prblem with neurioprathy which may not be relate to injuries I've had (see my email above about paleo diet & neuropathy) - since you find Vit.B1 & B12 are helping you, you may like to check the info on specific forms of these vitamins http://www.realfoodnutrients.com/NEU
which are meant to remove the need for injectionis and are meant to have helped a lot of people with bad neuropathy (generally diabetic, but still... ). I'm desperate to avoid serious nerve damage withj ni know cause, so am thinking of trying these vitamins myself.- Re: neuropathy: what are symptoms knowledge seeker

This is a reply to # 772,354chancha peidra has helped stop the nerve damage from diabetic neuropathy so maybe an organic tincutre of it will help
http://www.herballegacy.com/Thomas_Medicinal.html
Also be sure to consider taking (will have to make) the 9 herb formula also referred to as the relax-eze formula and b and b tincture..more info here and how to make it
Use organic or wildcrafted bulk herbs and make the fomentations and tinctures

The reason the b, f and c is used, Christopher said, is it rebuilds the nerves and nerve sheath (lecithin and nutritional yeast (torula) also help rebuild the nerve sheath/nerves for things like MS, Lou Gehrig's etc)
http://www.herballegacy.com/Relax_Eze.html
he says this about one of the causes of the nerve sheath becoming frayed through our diets in this quote from his website herballegacy.com
"the sheaths of the nerves have been worn or eaten away by the calcium having been leached off with the sugars that we take so much in beverages, candies, pastries and from the many breads that turn to Sugar in the body.
"It contains herbs that feed and revitalize the motor nerve at the base of the skull (medula area and upper cervicals) and also herbs that help rebuild the spinal cord. This group of nerves will also rebuild the frayed nerve sheath, the nerve itself and its capillaries."
In his big herbal book, School of natural healing, of this b and b tincture, he says "it is used for nervous conditions, sore throat, hiccups. restore malfunctioning motor nerves, assist in adjusting poor equilibrium and hearing, and a great blessing to epileptics)."
