Default foot pain of unknown origin

Went to Vanderbilt Neurology today. PN ruled out. Although I have pain, numbness, tingling in my feet Dr says symptoms not PN. I'm glad I don't have pn but I know there is nerve damage in my feet. When I asked the Dr. what my diagnosis was he said "foot pain of unknown origin. " Well I already knew that! Dr also said to take gabapentin instead of lyrica because the body metabolizes lyrica into gabapentin and of course the generic is cheaper than the brand name. resident dr spent 1 1/2 hrs. with me going over my many
issues. many kudos for that. What do you do if you have these symptoms but
no pn? Will nerves heal if I don't have pn?
