I know!!
He needs to see a PN specialist. a
A neurologist who specializes in treating neuropathy.
Many do not and are not equipped with the correct information,
nor are up to date on proper treatment.
(Do not expect to find one around the corner at your general neurologist's office.)

Only then will he get the proper medications to treat both his symptoms
and the pain.
Johns Hopkins, Jack Miller Center, Cornell - Weill, Mayo Clinics - are a few places that have PN specialist neuros to do this. There are others around the country.
