[QUOTE=joecarver;1025580]after trying gabapentin no help, Lyrica terrible side effects, decided to try supplements. started with R- Lipolic acid and Benfotiamine which have greatly improved my pains, didn't eliminate them but made life much better. Was surprised as I thought using over the counter meds, was a bunch of B.S.
Joe,
I tried gabapentin and it gave me palpations. Im on 350mgs of Lyrica with some side effects, lightheadedness, etc but tolerable. Lyrica after 18 mos at this dose is not helping. What terrible SE did you get with the Lyrica? I tried RLA didnt see a diff. I still take 150 mgs Benfotiamine after 2 yrs and I dont see a diff in my pain.. Glad these supplements have greatly improved your pain!!
How much RLA and Benf. do you take a day? What kind of symptoms or pain has it been helping. I feel like I have tryed almost everything and nothing is helping me with my burning, tingling and buzzing. I have I-SFN...
