Peripheral Neuropathy

[foxglove]

Has anyone tried diclophenac for peripheral neuropathy?

I have tried it in the pass, it was helpful with the pain. But, after a knee scope several years ago I was admitted to the hospital because of an GI Bleed, which was determined to be caused by diclofenac. I had an infection in my bowel called ischemia. I am not sure it was caused by the medication, but apparently it could have been. I do still use it in a topical ointment and have not had any issues.

Thanks for reply, med. seems to be helping (a little) no probs as yet so will continue for a bit! Sorry not for you, I also use the topical gel .
