Yesterday’s Article On Peripheral Neuropathy With MGUS. Is Anyone Taking Gabapentin For Their Neuropathy?

I tried Gabepentin and many use it for peripheral neuropathy. I found it made me tired and I limited the dose to avoid published side effects. I use kinesiology tape on my feet and moisturizing lotion on my hands . Visit my page to view video posting for kinesiology tape application. I have taped my feet for a couple years now when the pain is high. I hope this helps.
