I think Gabapentin for example is a great theraputic for nerve conditions. It's especially valuable when combined with anti inflammatory stuff in the bony joints like the knee and elbow...for instance with Diclofenac- it soothes arthritic pain and allows for more normal motion.
I don't know how it would work as a non-topical pill, that could be wild as it then goes into your whole body.
I don't think you're dealing with anything easy if these are your choices and medications.
Yeah lol life through me a Kershaw 12-6 curveball big time! I am learning to adjust even though it's been 8 years since the first neurosurgery. When they went into my head through the base they roughly cut all the nerves across the entire back of my head which really did help with all of the initial healing.
When I tried gabba for the nerve pain it is safe to say I did not have a great reaction so I had to cut it out. Even though what I am saying sounds awful compared to how messed up I was for a couple of years (the condition is rare and not a lot of dr.s know how to look for it or how to treat it) the surgery gave me my life back. It's not perfect but it is so much better than it was before.

I will actually go to the hospital back home and have them give me a pain bolo before I take opioids... I am jealous of the people who didn't have the emotional crazy reaction I had because otherwise, it would have been great for the nerve damage I have from what I hear!
