| NON Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy
Hi all, just wondering if there are others out there diagnosed with non diabetic peripheral neuropathy? I have suffered with numbness, tingling & pain in both feet for about 8 years. In the past 6 months these same symptoms have begun to appear in the fingers of both hands.
I have been treated for this with Endep at night for a few years now, first at 10mg about 1 year ago my Neurologist increased to 50mg. She also started me on Cymbalta 60 at the same time taken in the morning. A month ago I mentioned to her that I wasn't sure the Cymbalta was having much effect? Consequently, she reduced the Cymbalta to 30mg and added Endep 25 taken early evening with Endep 50 at bedtime.
Endep at this dose is fantastic at getting me a full nights sleep, (feet pain used to keep me awake most nights).
The Cymbalta reduced by half had the almost immediate effect of a marked increase in discomfort in my feet in the evening, until the Endep kicks in.
If anyone else is battling similar issues I'd love to hear how you are handling it and what treatments you are finding helpful.
