Hello Steve

Welcome to the forum.

Sorry I’ve never heard of the condition so can’t help. Hope someone else can give you some useful pointers.
 
Hi , it’s similarto neuropathy but where that starts generally in the feet and works upwards Meralgia Paraesthetica comes from nerves trapped in the thigh joint.
Was thinking of trying Canabis Oil to subdue the constant pains both in joints as well as outer thigh muscles.
Might just bite the bullet and try it.
Cheers Steve
