Guest guest Posted June 22, 2002 Report Share Posted June 22, 2002 to those of you wearing AFOs what are you doing to keep them cool? I've tried cotton socks, nylon socks, 85% cotton/15%lycra...I know I don't do well with the nylon at all. now the thin cotton socks seem too hot. my neurologist has increased my trileptal to 450mg twice a day to try helping with the burning sensation in my feet. i did try neurontin, but it made me retain about 7 lbs of water and caused constipation, although it did seem to help the burning in my feet. still the discomfort from the neurontin wasn't worth all that. Thank you for your help...it's great having a place to go for helpful hints...dr's don't know too much about living with these symptoms on a daily basis.
