Response from Dr. Feinberg
 It sounds like you have developed peripheral neuropathy (damage to the longest nerves in the body). Although there is no way to cure this, there are relatively inexpensive medicines that may take care of the pain. Try to find out what amitriptyline ot nortriptyline would cost-- these medicines have been around for a long time and may be affordable. Take heart-- your end day is not near, but you will be much more comfortable if you can take care of the discomfort. Good luck! |
