The pharmacist says that Aleve is a bit stronger, but not much. I have used a heating pad as well when the pain gets really bad as a result of the boosters shots I get now and again for the white cell counts. And I was also told that elevating the legs sometimes helps with the pain as well as the swelling i get now and again - I have a wedge shaped pillow which I raise up my legs on when I need to. Do you get leg cramps as well? Mine are pretty bad some nights alothugh I don't get them every nite, thank goodness! - I have no idea if they are from my continual lack of potassium for which I medicate or irregular calcium level or the diabetes though. in Port Orange, FL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 27, 1999 Report Share Posted March 27, 1999 Hi- I 've taken neurontin {300mg twice a day} for over 2 years for neuropathy problems. I also take an antidepressant {desyrel}. The combination of medications has really helped me. I also wear " sensible " shoes-no heels or pointed toes! Advice please? > > >> >> >>Listbuds >> >>I am still trying to find something to aleve my neuropathy pain in my feet >>and would like some input. Has anyone taken Neurontonin and did it help?
