I am with Joe about the water & B1 taking in divided doses during the day, or possibly even the stronger form of B1 [ Benfotiamine ] may help.

In the early days of my PN, the burning was getting to me during the day, that much that one day i phoned my neuro and asked for help, i was taking Endep at night [ Amitryptiline ] and he told me to take 25 mg of Endep in the morning which did help a lot, some people can't handle this med but i didn't have any big problems with it, may help to ask your doc to adjust your meds your currently taken.

i hope the burning settles down for you soon,
