Within next 2 weeks going to my Pain clinic due to no refill unless I see the Pain clinic doctor and was wondering if there is any medicine I should try to help with nerve damage?

Answer 1

I think that once the nerve is damaged there is no way to get it back

Those medication are to avoid nerves damages because nothing can reverse them

Answer 2

I'm not a doctor, and your medical history seems rather extensive and complex, so i'm going to limit my input to what I know from my own experience.

   I suffer from diabetic neuropathy and a compressed sciatic nerve due to herniation at L5-S1. I have found Lyrica to be most helpfull and would recommend it's use in neuropathic cases.
