Miss Mac 6,262 Posted May 4, 2014 I don't have that problem, but do have burning neuropathies in other places. Are you diabetic or have a B12 deficiency? If your doctor trys to prescribe Gabpentin, ask if you can have Lyrica instead. Gabpentin is about as effective as Tic Tacs, Lyrica gives me decent relief after the dosage was eventually increased to 100 milligrams 3X a day. I hope you can find some relief soon.

MichiganChic 3,262 Posted May 4, 2014 This sounds like neuropathic pain, and if it's new, you need to get it looked at right away. It might be from a reversible cause that can be corrected, like a Vitamin deficiency. As @@Miss Mac said, if you are diabetic, that's an unfortunate complication of diabetes. Or, if you are like me, you could have it and never know why. I started getting it about 5 years ago for no known reason, and I've been looked at inside and out, we just don't know why. Unfortunately, that not all that uncommon. Sorry you are having that - it's not fun! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
