Now I'm barely able to walk. I'm not diabetic. My toes don't go up, neither do my heels. I just want to know if I can get better again, back to 100%!? I started taking Gabapentin 300mg and the doctor said to start physical therapy. Do you recommend any vitamins? Any more recommendations are welcome.

Thank you
Do you mean that you cannot move your toes nor walk on your heels? Have you investigated hereditary neuropathy? If there is muscle involvement it could be CMT. Does anyone in your family have neuropathy?
