To quickly access health information from your website's browser, download Never give up hope! I was a very active 47-year-old male before I came down with neuropathy about two years. I started taking Lyrica (300mg) a day approximately six months ago to help with the pain. The pain was mostly in feet, hands, and face, sometimes during the day it would become unbearable. I would stop what I was doing and start praying. Started reading all the information I could find on websites about neuropathy I started taking cod liver oil, fish liver oil, vitamin C, B-12, multivitamins and even changed my diet, but nothing worked, until I started taking borage oil with gamma-linolenic acid (GLA). My doctor told me it was blind luck that I stumbled onto GLA. I do not think so! After taking Borage Oil/GLA for five weeks, I am completely off Lyrica and have very little tingling or pain in my feet, hands, or face. My feet are still numb, but specialist told me that the nerves in my feet would regenerate. I understand your pain and feel for you. I’ll continue to pray for all of you. Keep the FAITH! Comments
