I have had neuropathy in my feet for years and am currently taking 600 mg of lyrica per day and it really helps with the pain. All the docs are not sure why I have it but suspect it's because I was pre-diabetic for so many years before becoming diabetic. Through weight loss I have now managed to reverse the diabetes but the neuropathy still remains and will remain for the rest of my life.

...and yes, check your feet daily.
