My feet have been about 80% numb for about 8 months now. My doctor put me on Gabapentin, but it really doesn't help at all. The doctor told me there is nothing she could do for numbness. I lost my ability to drive my truck because I can't feel the pedals.

Neuropathy is treatable. Search for a therapist in your area that does Ozone Treatment. It willl help with recovery.
Also take Vitamin B3 and Vitamin E, Vitamin B12, CoQ10 and L.Arginite, Ltheanine. Also try PEMF. It has helped me tremendously. I have almost recovered. Doctors want to sell drugs. You are vitamin insuffient in my experience. See a holistic practitioner in your area.

You might look at the type of controls paralyzed drivers use. They're hand-controlled gas and brake... pedals?
