[QUOTE="ally1, post: 1484696, member: 110790"] I am t2 and have recently been diagnosed with severe neuropathy in my left foot and medium neuropathy in my right foot. On 12th May I saw my gp about pain relief for the nerve pain, he was upfront and said then that he would consider giving me pain relief if I needed it but wasn,t given anything at the time but he did say to go back. I have an appointment Thursday 22nd June to see my Gp about it. My Gp did say if he gave me painkillers, that he would have to look at my current meds with the possibility of have to come off my psych meds because of interacting. I understand that. At the moment the pain is worse late evening so would not need painkillers all day every day. I spoke to a friend about it, she had a right go at me saying I should not ask for painkillers. I rarely say to her about the pain but I feel ordinary over the counter painkillers do nothing. I do admit as I have bipolar, when I am manic, the pain feels worse. Now I Don, t know if I am over reacting or even if I should cancel the appointment. I have got 60 capsules of 600mgs of alpha lipoic acid which I only stated taking on Saturday. Please what would you do in my situation [/QUOTE]
