Hi peeps, just wondering who else has a lot of foot pain and what treatment has eased it? I was taking 900mg gabapentin, then a chilli based cream,now I'm on400mg quinine sulphate b4 I go to bed, all to no avail. Is there anyone who has another remedy to solve this as some nights I dont get any sleep.
Cheers
 
Hello Craig

Welcome to the forum. Sorry to hear about your feet.

Do you know what the cause of the pain is? If it is related to nerve damage as a result of diabetes we have had some members in the past who found keeping BG fluctuation to a minimum was a significant help.

Yes nerve damage in the feet causing the the problem, I stand all day at work but pain seems even more intense when I'm in bed

Ah that’s really tough Craig.

I don’t have any experience of neuropathy personally, but wonder if @KARNAK or some of the other members might be able to give you some ideas.
 
Thanks @everydayupsanddowns I will be only too glad to help, I have written a reply but cannot post it back to Craig, no post button can you help? I have saved the post just in case it is lost.

Do you mean as a PM/Conversation Ted? Hopefully that should be possible now.
 
Yes Mike there is still no option to post or an option to reply, its probably me I don`t normally have a problem.
 
Hang in there Craig a little glitch with the reply in the PM/Conversations, I haven`t forgotten you.
