Anyone have any suggestions for alleviating neuropathic pain? I've got a stretched and partially torn brachial plexus and it hurts like a motherfucker.
Already on 300mg pregabalin bds and have amitriptyline (which does nothing).. any suggestions?
I should add that I'm also on 200mg morphine per day for my discitis (the most painful thing ive ever gone through and that includes being shot) but opioids dont help with neuropathy.
The cold weather here in the UK makes it even worse. My entire right arm is numb but burning at the same time (if that makes sense) and I've lost almost all movement in my right arm and hand. I'm determined to do what I can to get it back but the combination of that, the discitis plus all the damage to my left leg (shattered foot, torn achilles and torn nerve rendering the foot unable to move at all) is making things tough.. but I never, ever give up... The pain is rather extreme though.
