I use Trental & have for over 3 years now. I think my nerve meds worked better after I started it. I take Neurontin & now also Lyrica for the nerve pain, numbness & full feeling that RSD causes in my feet.

To whoever it was who had a neuroma removed from their feet,
Also when they do remove neuroma's in the feet they use a tourniquet. I had two removed in one foot & have left the neuroma/s in my other foot alone. I had the neuromas before I had surgery & they caused RSD to happen in my feet. The removal of the neuroma in my left foot only made RSD MUCH MUCH worse in that foot. Lately tho the right foot hurts worse probably cause that neuroma has grown. It has been 4 years since all this happened to me.

Vicc,
I can't say that I totally understand all that you say, but what I do understand I appreciate knowing. Thanks.
