Anyone Have Any Success With Anodyne Therapy For Diabetic Neuropathy?

A MyChronicPainTeam Member asked a question 💭
West Seneca, NY

I have diabetic neuropathy in my hands and feet, maybe compounded by P.A.D. (for which I'm taking Plavix) and it's been getting worse. I take Hydrocodone/APAP 7.5/325 Q4 prn. I used to take maybe 1/day avg. Now I'm up to 3-5 daily. They've refused me stronger opiates due to severe heart and lung disease. Fine, but the pain is driving me insane. I'm functioning less and less and spending more and more time in bed watching movies due to the pain.

I'm going to be starting another round of home… read more

So sorry for your problems. I, too, have neuropathy in feet which feels like blocks of wood which I think I've gotten so used to it that I largely ignore it. I take Neurontin 3x/day. For The Neuropathy in my hands I take care of it with Vitamin B12 sub-lingual. My Fentanyl doesn't do a darn thing. At a dosage of 25 ugh which was cut down from 50 ugh is so not doing anything. I don't know why I bother. I guess I should quit it. Maybe I should try not using it for a while to see what happens. Hope every one is doing great and wish you all a better day tomorrow. ❤️🙏🏼

The best thing for that, I found, are the nerve pain medicine. My hands would feel like they were on fire!!! Ur neurologist should have already put u on the nerve pain meds. If I'm out of nerve pain medicine, it is literally like living in hell. Only way I could really put it accurately!
