My husband has neuropathy in his feet, shins, and fingertips. He is bothered most at night when lying down, when his feet and legs become painful. He has found that gabapentin helps. You might ask your medical team whether that is something worth considering.

I'm curious how many of you, like me, are on blood thinners - and if my recent experience is worth considering. One night I was suddenly awakened with a painful foot cramp. The next day I experienced suspicious signs of a thrombosis in the top of the foot: pain, limping, swelling, heat, redness. It healed after three days. I assume it was a clot that dissolved, thanks to my anticoagulant therapy (Xarelto).

I get foot and ankle cramps at night. I’ve found Voltairin stops the cramp with in 10 minutes. The pain is brutal. My wife thinks it’s because I’m dehydrated, but with a diuretic, I pee constantly.

At the beginning of treatment my nerve pain was bad but now all I have is the neuropathy in my feet

Yup, that’s another thing he has. We didn’t think of that as nerve problems. Thank you!
