I was taking 10mg of amlodipine for HBP and my legs were pretty weak. I didn't know how much longer I was going to be able to keep walking. I changed how I eat and my med was reduced to 2.5mg and my legs are not nearly as weak as they were. I cut out a lot of junk food and eat mostly what is good for us. I was able also to get off of my cholesterol medicine finofibrate which I was taking for high triglycerides by cutting way down on sugar. Most of the sugar I consume now is what is in fruit and honey. No cakes or candy. I drink different teas which are very nutritious and haven't had any soda for over 2 years. I lost 20 some pounds. I now get up most days and stay up till bedtime without taking a nap during the day. I thank God for helping me with all of this.

My chronic neuropathy came from GABAPENTIN, a.k.a. NEURONTIN. I cannot be the only victim of this nasty drug.

[@AriePharmD]

@jillmadigan9841 Gabapentin shouldn’t cause neuropathy because it’s used to treat neuropathy. Chances are you need to get on a good vitamin B complex (specifically, one with at least 100mg of thiamine). Bronson Labs makes one called “Vitamin B100”. Diabetics and consumers of a high carbohydrate diet are at increased risk of thiamine deficiency. This is because thiamine is used (a cofactor) to break down carbohydrates into energy. Thus, the thiamine deficiency is from the body’s excessive use of thiamine breaking down sugars and carbohydrates. I hope this helps you. To your better health, Arie

[@Bryan-Hensley]

That's totally different. Your pancreas is already damaged from something, they aren't producing enough insulin. If you let your sugar get too high, the cells in the blood vessels will absorb those sugars and basically explode. Basically the inside of your blood vessels start flaking off..

[@marisakennedy777]

Also check out the book Glucose Revolution. Written by a French scientist, Jessie Inchauspe. She had a severe back injury when she was young and very strange symptoms after that which a developing glucose sensitivity eventually made worse. Later after college she studied glucose and then checked out research on it and found some VERY interesting things about glucose spikes and many ways to manage them. Turns out it is not so much the sugar itself that is the problem, it is how much and how quickly it enters the bloodstream. And just eating veggies (like broccoli and celery - not potatoes or sweet veggies) before eating carbs and sugars, does a lot to slow the absorbtion of sugar into the blood. There is a lot more to it, but gives you an idea.

[@Bryan-Hensley]

@@marisakennedy777 I worked in the emergency medical field for over 10 years. Natural sugars enter the bloodstream much much quicker than processed sugars or fructose corn syrup. When we showed up on a low sugar call and the patient was alert enough to drink, orange juice would work within 60 to 120 seconds. A Pepsi or a sports drink would take 10 minutes to make any difference. The only time we ever saw a sugar spike for processed sugars was when an 18 year old girl ate 200 chocolate bars to try to get her ex boyfriend's attention..

50 years ago while working in a Biochemistry lab, I was involved in a project where our standard scientific diet for lab rats had sunflower seed oil substituted for purified animal fat, as the ONLY difference between two test groups. Tracking the weight and health over many months two things became very obvious: 1/ the sunflower rats gained weight more rapidly and were more flaccid (squishy); 2/ the sunflower rats looked less healthy. On regular culling and dissection, the sunflower rats had more visceral fat round their internal organs. And finally, sunflower rats actually started dying before the normal rat lifespan during the course of the project. Needless to say, I've avoided sunflower oil products like the plague. Do you eat sunflower oil fried foods and snacks? Do you have rolls of squishy flab? Approaching my 76th birthday, I take NO PRESCRIPTION MEDICINES. Mostly down to genes, BUT I have NEVER replaced animal fat with cooking oil for any purpose and avoid snacks fried in vegetable oils.

AMEN AMEN AMEN AMEN AMEN AMEN AMEN AMEN 🎉

[@JudyCBell]

I am so grateful for this information. Recently I was given Nitrofurantoin for a light case of UTI. I had never had this drug before. I am 77 years old. The first time I took it, I had a harshly painful reaction. I decided to try a second dose to rule out other possible causes. From that the reaction was much worse than the first time. After a few nights I was able to sleep with out drugs. I have been calling it allergy. But actually the symptoms can easily be labeled neuropathy. I did not think of this. Not only did my legs swell up hugely, but they were hurting like crazy. This did not bother me in the daytime. But happened as soon as I lay down to sleep. But the pain was so bad, I couldn't sleep. I do have a small amount of neuropathy all the time due to having had chemo. But I did not connect the two, as this reaction experience was wildly different than the others in intensity.

[@bbbl67]

Statins again! Are they good for anything other than side-effects?

[@nashkita77]

Gabapentin helped my pinched nerve. In 5 days from excruciating pain to slight pain in 5 days . . Then eventually had surgery. C-7 bone spurs removal. 24 days to withdraw.

[@chamonix2602]

I had peripheral neuropathy for about a year....then I remembered to do kegel exercises which eased back pain. A few months later the neuropathy was gone, because of kegel or just spontaneous.

[@terry4801]

Hi, can you please tell me what kegel exercises are? I'm suffering from peripheral neuropathy caused by cipro antibiotics. Thanks.

[@MichaelAngelo-7]

I was wondering why people say weird stuff these days, thank you for shining light on my wonders.

[@amt9289]

When NutraSweet first came out in the early ‘80s,I developed numbness in my feet,hands and arms. My doctors called it idiopathic. The only change was,I added the artificial sweetener to my diet. So I stopped using it immediately and it stopped getting worse. It took months to lessen and over a year go away. Apparently I had nerve damage. It was very alarming.

[@realblockheads8217]

Aspartame (in NutraSweet) was being developed as an ulcer drug when its value as a sweetner was discovered. It causes joint inflammation in me.

[@marcellabrowning315]

Aspartame is a catalyst for aggressive brain tumors. The younger the consumer, the worse the higher its impact. This includes fetuses.

[@pandachickenmama]

I got migraines from nutrasweet. Stopped taking it, and no more migraines.

[@kellywolffis5916]

Levoquin is Bad

[@laurieevans9628]

You get to a certain age, eat what you want, tomorrow is not promised. 70 years old older you get the more pain you experience.

[@L.Fontein7]

Check your diet. Some foods ate poisonous to our systems - i.e. sugar, and seed oils - both found in most processed foods - very bad for the body

[@andrearobinson3911]

My neuropathy came from surgery.. Transvaginal mesh caused the entrapment of the pudendal nerve.. Neuropathy on the butt/pelvis really sucks. Soooo soooo much. As far as cipro/levoquin... I avoid those like the plague. I have a connective tissue disorder called sjogrens and it's severely damaged my shoulder. When I take either of those, I can't sleep the pain is so bad. It's sheer agony.

[@dallasarnold9197]

😢😢

[@howlingwaters2741]

Yep, the fluoroquinolone family!

[@SugarMDs]

I'm really sorry to hear about your struggles, @andrearobinson3911. It's crucial to manage neuropathy with appropriate treatments and lifestyle changes. Please check with your doctors about your situation and medications. Thanks for sharing your experience. Stay strong!

[@SayVeritatis]

Levofloxacin did it for me. Dr gave me a five day course. I had to discontinue after 3 days. My left foot and forearm went numb and had severe pain. It took 10 years for symptoms to decline. Now after 17 years 5% symptoms remain.

Why is thalidomide still being prescribed?

[@jimi291154]

Thalidomide is still being given to pregnant women in Brazil..with the warning written in Spanish ?..you couldnt make this stuff up

[@SugarMDs]

While it has side effects, Thalidomide is used in specific cases due to its effectiveness, particularly in multiple myeloma treatment. Always discuss concerns about any medication with your healthcare provider.

[@DEZZ6]

Thalidomide is contra-indicated during PREGNANCY.

[@dougshoemaker2114]

Growing up I knew 2 kids who were thalidomide babies. Their arms didn't fully develop. One girl was missing a hand. Another kid, who played baseball with us, his arm didn't develop past one of his elbows. This stuff is nasty.

[@terrifiorelli9819]

Still used for psoriasis or purigo nodularis in some patients.

[@lw8865]

I notice on the days, evenings, I eat a diet high in sugar problems with hot burning feet and pins and needles up to my knees. So easy solution - steer clear of sugar 😅 I also get problems if I consume too much cream, evaporated milk etc in one dessert - sinuses bad and asthma attack. 🤔 will I ever learn ❓

[@lindahall3546]

I'm so glad you said that because I noticed the same thing! If I eat too much sugar, my feet are on fire now. It's terrible ...like Burning needles!

[@candyadams-frazier1759]

I have neuropathy and restless legs. Gabapentin has been a life saver for me!

[@ritareick7191]

You may need magnesium.

[@Yellow-oc4sl]

Birth control can help with restless legs too , and other things look into it that gabapentin is dangerous

[@Yellow-oc4sl]

It's only used for shingles in my opinion stops burning in body

[@teresaroy3558]

Me too

[@josmelser9869]

I believe this isn’t a sure thing about Gabapentin causing neuropathy.

[@LazySusann]

I have had tendinopathy throughout my body for 15 years because of levofloxacin. Not debilitating, but I cannot be as active as I used to be, because of the risk of injury.

[@marisolfigueroa5905]

MY 88 YR OLD MOM WAS JUST PRESCRIBED GABAPENTIN FOR NERVE PAIN. BUT, AFTER RDG THE COMMENTS HERE ABOUT THIS DRUG. I DO NOT WANT MY MOM TAKING THIS DRUG!😠

[@Yellow-oc4sl]

For me it only worked for shingles the burning in the body and I actually got sleep , but it was so strong for me at 300 mg so I took half dose still strong but not as bad as 300 mg but still strong , after a few days I stopped that gabapentin asap I did not like the way it was making me feel , remember if she was to catch shingles it is recommended to use gabapentin but I be Leary of how long too the withdrawal and side effects were so terrible for me , made my throat and chest feel really weird and my breathing was suppressed by shallow breathing be careful of this drug

[@kathleenbrennan8684]

Great choice Marisol !!!!!😊

[@timothymarshall6709]

I have prostate cancer that is in remission however i was treated with 6 cycles of chemotherapy now i have pain in my hands i have been prescribed duloxetine and im starting to hear to hear bad reports about this.🤔

[@steverid]

I was on Effexor since 1997. I have finally weened myself off of it within the past month. I developed neuropathy about 9 years ago and am not diabetic. I attribute the neuropathy to being on Effexor for so many years. Especially after reading so much information about the causes of non-diabetic neuropathy.

[@sevenstars8945]

How long did it take you to get off of the effexor...I am hoping to start weening myself off of it...I am on 150mg right now...not looking forward to the withdrawal. I have been on effexor since around 1995 or 1996

[@michaelault7389]

A poor doctor put my wife on that stuff for no reason, (she went for a pap only) and it began causing some weird side effects. Within a week, she was scratching so much it made sores for instance. She quit and had such a reaction we went to the hospital. They said she must ween, after only taking it two weeks. WTH kind of monsters make these drugs, and what kind push them on patients? Don't take Effexor!

[@carlapatrick1383]

I'm very happy for you program thankyou very much . My husband will benefit greatly from this . Love from Manitoba Canada ❤

We in africa don't have access to your drugs advice on some best substitutes we can access which are common and assessed thanks k

[@kathleenmartin7498]

A lot of you traditional cures probably work better than manufactured drugs. I don't know what the laws are where you live, but here in the US we have prescription drugs, which are only available through a pharmacy after a doctor has written a prescription to get it. We also have OTC (Over up the Counter) drugs, which are available any where. What type kept drugs are you curious about?

[@Yellow-oc4sl]

Meats and herbs good fats , rice is good too

[@J3nni_lala]

Don't be curious about any American drugs all of them are poisonous to the body. Use traditional African medicine, it will keep you alive.

[@oleainatoivo]

Thank you, so glad I found you.

[@patriciaherlevi6217]

You can get neuropathy from Lyme disease. I don't have diabetes and I started suffering from this condition after being bitten by ticks.

[@MelissaOhlrich]

Thank you for that information I moved up to Alabama 4 years ago in the middle of the woods. I've never been bitten by ticks until then and since I've lived up here I've had such severe neuropathy that I've had to see so many doctors and none of them can tell me anything. Thank you for sharing that information I would have never thought about the ticks

[@Bugsworth]

Thank you Dr Ahmet, i subscribed to your Channel. Blessings and good luck to you

[@josmelser9869]

Gabapentin has not caused me nerve pain but has benefited me when I do from my surgery.

[@juliaw7533]

There are much better drugs that don't turn you into a zombie 🙏

[@davemccarthy7366]

Elevations of serum glutamic acid ( a neurotransmitter that's also an amino acid) are a major cause of distal neuropathies. Testing an amino acid panel can detect this. Changing the balance of two other amino acids allows the glutamic acid to return to normal with subsequent improvement in the neuropathy. Your list of drugs and toxins is outstanding, many thanks.

[@X-Appeal]

What about walking on concrete for 35 years?

[@rocket964]

Benfotiamine reversed most of my diabetic neuropathy, many years ago and I have never had any further symptoms by continuing to use it (600 mg/day).

[@SugarMDs]

@rocket964 Glad to hear that benfotiamine worked for you. Keep kicking diabetes!

[@gurnblanston5000]

Gaba type drugs can also cause seizures or be inconsistent regarding pain effectiveness.

[@RE-pn5yq]

I take Paracrtamol quite often for minor pain. Completely came off then gave up Loxelate which was good at first caused fogginess, lack of ‘get up and go’ and general interest in the world around me. Anti anxiety.

Thanks i have been taking colchicine for over a year and i am now experiencing tingling in feet…..i will discontinue it.

[@SugarMDs]

Thanks for sharing! Tingling in the feet could be a side effect, but please don’t stop taking colchicine without consulting your doctor first. They can help determine if it’s related and recommend the best course of action for your health. Take care!

[@Victor-hb4hj]

What about vaccines?

[@lisaconsecratedtogod682]

Steer clear of them. They harm your natural Immunity.

[@howlingwaters2741]

🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗😠

[@SugarMDs]

Vaccines typically don't cause neuropathy. Always consult with your doctor! Sometimes they induce demyelination though like Gillian barre syndrome

[@AcumenTV]

@@SugarMDsCheck the VAERS data base for vaxx injuries. Small fiber neuropathy is listed and many people are experiencing it. My wife is one of them. Please do your due diligence.

Tests have shown that Tylenol not only dulls feeling pain but also has some slight impact on feeling empathy.

What ?

Thanks Doc. Was excellent. How about calcium channel blockers like verapamil? They can cause little bit pedal edema and tingling and may be numbness? I assume is reversible? Please advise. Thanks

If you have dermatitis herpetiformis, try giving up wheat and other sources of gluten. I did so after suffering for years, and it had gone within a week,
