Hey Buddy:
I can certainly understand your symptoms. I have only
started getting these symptoms of peripheral
neuropathy within the last year. The pain had me in
such painful cranky mood, the only way I felt comfort
was to sit still. I was so miserable because I didn't
want to take any medication, but I ended up giving
into Neurotin, 300mg twice a day and 100mg at night.
Sometimes if I over do myself being overly physical,
the pain is so uncomfortable I need a pain medication
or sleeping pill in order to fall asleep.

I discovered this device called the "Rebuilder." I do
this 30 mins every day, the last three weeks and after
a month or so can recuce it to 3X a week. I have
noticed a huge difference in using this device along
with my Neurontin. I hope this advice helps. I am
now developing symptoms in my arms and left hand. I
hope this doesn't get worse.
