I started taking something called Fast Start nerve health support made by Plexus. It is so expensive but I am so desperate to get some relief from the burning, pain and stiffness in my feet and legs. At first I thought it was helping but now i'm not so sure but I'm afraid to stop it. I've been up the past few nights with so much pain. Everytime I call my doctor she just increases the Neurotin 300 more mg which seems to help for about 5 or 6 weeks and then it's like the Neuropathy is trying to get ahead of the medicine and the pain is back again. I know you can take 3000+mg of Neurotin but I feel like a zombie now and can't imagine 3000mg effects on me. Where is the quality of life when you have to deal with this everyday? When in the past and times were tough I always thought of what my dear mother told me "This, too, shall pass." But this is never going to pass it is only going to get worse because there is no cure. I feel so guilty complaining like this when I know there are so many people out there suffering much worse than I am. I have benn reading about B12 and am going to try that route. There has to be something beside the pain pills to deal with this. Thanks for listening, it just helps to vent sometimes. Blessings, Katie O
