There is gotta be something that alleviates the folded sock syndrome.

I have my doubts that any drug is going to give you complete or near complete relief. From what I've read, the Nortriptyline has the best patient reviews, and you're still talking about in the neighborhood of 40% relief. Adding gabapentin to it may add another 10-15% more relief. You probably need to see where this is going first, & talk to your Neuro about combination therapy, if you have that much pain. There are more things you could probably try, such as capsicum cream, but I'm not going to try to take the place of your DR.
