I know people say that it is different for different people but I'm curious to see how long people have had the symptoms. Because I was only on it for five days, 30mg a day. And then I stopped it cold turkey. I get all of these symptoms that I never got before - sharp pain, a pin pinching feeling, burning that doesn't go away when I take my shoes off, and this strange feeling like someone is lightly touching your skin. The lightly touching feeling and pin pinching as moved to my legs and arms now also. (no this is not a stroke or heart attack. ER already tested me for that) I started to take it because I had burning in my feet and even though my nerve test came back normal, my neorologist thought that maybe it was at least nerve iritation. I am petite and average built, weighing around 115. I wonder if it could have hit me hard because I'm small.

All I do know is it has been three weeks and I still have them. I wonder if the drug actually hurt my nerves or if this is still the drug doing this. My neurologist is completely clueless! He has no idea. I ask him of the symptom and he actually told me he has no idea.
