Nerve Decompression Surgery

I’ve had neuropathy since about 2010. In 2014 I had the surgery on both legs leaving me with three scars on each leg — outside of leg under my knee, top of foot, and inside on my ankle. Last month I added another scar...outside of my leg above my ankle.

I have gotten some relief and can even now wear shoes!

I’ve reduced my meds somewhat (neurontin is 3600mg, b complex and all the regular supplements).

Has anyone else had this surgery?

Odd that there were no replies to your post yet. I have not read here that surgery has been much of an option for PN. Can you elaborate about exactly what the surgeon did?
