Hi ~ I'm so sorry you suffer from this pain. I also have neuropathy, caused by spinal problems. Are you on any medications for the pain? I'm taking Topamax, which is a seizure medication which they found would ease the nerve pain in the arms & legs. It works VERY well! I have no side effects either, but that doesn't mean that you won't. There are other types of this kind of medication too, which could help.

Talk to your doctor about these meds, and see if he can help. I wish you the very best! God bless & please take care. Hugs, Lee
