Hi everyone I sometimes get 'sore/hypersensitive' patches appear on my torso or arms,they come and go but when they happen they HURT... I have tried most OTC painkillers and topical ibuprofen but they don't do anything to relieve the pain.I went to my doctor yesterday and asked if there was anything she could give me for these painful patches and I also asked if there was any medication that would I could use whenever the tingling in my hands and feet became worse and she said there was nothing available, she has also prescribed me amiltriptyline for the long term treatment of my symptoms.
I started taking methyl b12 a short while ago and for the first few weeks it really seemed like it was helping but that was short lived unfortunatley although im still taking it every day. I was also taking a normal strength b complex but decided to get some b-right from iherb,but taking one of these pills a day seemed to increase the tingling in my hands and feet!!!! Would anyone have any ideas as to why this would happen? There is only 25mg of b6 and 10 mg of p 5 p in each capsule... Also has anyone had any success with anything to reduce the pain associated with the sore patches?Or is my doctor correct when she says there is nothing she can prescribe for this. Also is there anything that would work to reduce the tingling in my hands and feet when it starts to flare up?Lastly I really dont want to start taking amiltriptyline if I can possibly help it, has anyone had a postive experiences with this med?Does it really help to cut down on altered sensations/tingling and other symptoms of neuropathy? I know there are many knowledgable and helpful people on here and I hope I get some good news from someone, thanks for taking the time to read this. |
