Neurotrophic Nerve Pain

[ljrand]

Does anyone have a suggestion for Lyrica? I would love to be able to take something over the counter. Thank you for any help or suggestions!

As ever, mod4all sells Lyrica and Gabapentin.

I used to hate Lyrica and Gabapentin, but once you get over the stoned/drunk/off-your-head phase, they are great.

Good for spasticity/pain, and I rate them as the No #1 anti-spasm med. Absolutely bar none.

I take Alpha Lipoic Acid, NAC and Resveratrol. All seem to have helped reduce my neuropathy in my calves and feet.

Hi Sdlizlem, that is encouraging to hear that these natural supplements have helped reduce the neuropathy in your calves and feet. I have the same problem. Can you tell me what dose you take of each supplement? How long did you take these before you noticed an improvement?

I have been taking a few new supplements for 2-6 months but have not noticed an improvement. I am on a product called Nerve Renew and it contains Alpha Lipoic Acid. I am also taking Padma Basic and Shark Liver Oil, both are recommended for MS.

I am in a high level of pain all the time. It sure would be nice to find something natural that would reduce the pain.

Thanks for the info.

NAC (n-acetyl-l-cysteine) 600 mg capsules 2X daily brand Pure Encapsulations

Controlled-Release Alpha-Lipoic Acid 600 mg 2X daily brand ALAmax CR

Resveratrol 500 mg 2X daily brand Vital Nutrients

Expensive stuff but my pain went from (on scale of 1-10) a 9 in August to now anywhere from a 3-7 on a pain scale. But most days are pretty good. I also have adopted a 70% Wahl's Protocol diet, meaning I only stick to it 70% of the time. I take a total of 10 supplements a day and includes 10 iu of Vitamin D, Fish Oil and Vitamin B12 to help with energy level.
