I am currently under going radiation treatments, about 4 more days left, had my chemo,finished this past July, one of the drugs in chemo caused me to develop neuropathy in both feet.I asked my podiatrist to give me a precription for lyrica, I want to start taking it to relieve the pain my feet. The pain is so unbearable, I need to get back to work soon, Thanks Eary
I'm not sure if I am clear on a question in what you've stated.  I agree with your wanting to take something to calm down the neuropathy in your feet as soon as possible.  Has gabapentin been tried yet?  That is usually the first step when treating chemical induced neuropathy of the feet.  Also, have you had the proper lab workup to be sure you are not either B12, Folate, Mg., or vitamin D deficient which can also play huge roles in peripheral neuropathy. If this information is useful then, your brief written feedback with a STAR RATING would be most appreciated. Also, I am a neurologist and would be amply able to help you with any other questions on this matter.  Please write me on this or any other questions you may have at:bit.ly/ Chat Doctor.
