Feet Burning
Feet Burning
Hello, if I am on my feet for a certain amount of time my feet burn and hurts to walk. I then have
to limp.. I know there are a lot of meds out there, was wondering if there is one that does not have crazy side effects and weight gain etc
I am perscribed Neurontin (Gabapentin) for serious nerve pains constantly in both hands. Not a narcotic so it does norhing for muscle aches. For the first couple of days while body gets used to it, you may get a slight drunk feeling. That goes away and haven't had any bad effects since. Thats been my experience at least.
Gabapetin 1200 mg every 8 hours (makes me swell up with water like a balloon.) Slow release morphine on top of the neurotin/gabapentin was a god send. When it felt like my entire body was on fire 24/7 those 2 meds got me through 7 years of hell and allowed me to be able to walk enough to make a cup of tea or french toast. Plus I can go shopping for a couple of hours if I take an extra 30 mg of quick release morphine. I used to be on 60mg of morphine sulfate every 8 hours but with extra numbness I'm down to 30 mg of morphine sulfate (slow release morphine) every 8 hours :) See a pain specialist, they help :) .... oh and fentanyl patches are great to :)
Lyrica is limited in how much they can give you. On some people it works on other people it doesn't. For me I barely noticed it working. I asked if I could double the dose. My neurologist said no & stuck me on Gabapentin. I do see a pain specialist. Your neurologist probably can not prescribe pain meds. So you may be better off asking your neurologist to refer you to a pain specialist
Does lyrics have any side effects?
