One of the cool things too, I can stand on one leg to put my socks on now Hey, its the simple things.....
This info is what I have been looking for for so long,thank you icehouse!I too was a heavy drinker for years and developed this life robbing condition.have had it 4 or so years been on gab 300x4 amitriptyline 150 , oxy 5mg x3. I have quit drinking but I have not seen any relief.my numbness is still the same,but the neuropathy has seemed to have receded from above the knees to my lower legs which I feel any improvement is a huge plus! My dr. Doesn't think it's alcohol .from what I have been reading from people like yourself it has to be.I really am glad I found your posts, thank you for sharing it gives me hope for tomorrow! You are right it's the simple things that count.Good luck with your recovery !
