Severe Pain, On Norca, Some Patches For Degenerative Disk In Back. Diabetic, Autonomic Neuropathy. Possible Treatment?

Our 45 year old daughter with three children, is in so much pain she is about ready to give up. She is on NORCO and some patches for a degenerative disc in her back. She is diabetic, autonomic neuropathy with little hope of getting better. What can be done for someone who misses doctor appointments because of to much pain to move?

ello,

I have studied your case.

Hello,

Thanks for writing to us,

I have read your query and I would advise the following:


Change your diet and remove inflammatory foods such as citrus fruits, dairy products and wheat that may aggravate the condition. Simultaneously increase your intake of potassium and calcium-rich foods such as bananas and avocados and green leafy vegetables
Ingredients like chromium, vanadium, pectin, alpha-lipoic acid, niacin, and certain types of mushrooms. High blood sugar can have negative effects on nerve function as it produces a chemical by product that causes oxidative stress. Oxidative stress can be nutritionally managed by antioxidants such as Vitamin E, Essential Fatty Acids, and Glutathione. However, the main priority is to maintain healthy blood sugar.
Vitamin B12 is important in the maintenance of health and normal functioning of the nerve tissue and deficiency of it can lead to numbness. You can increase B12 level by taking meat and fish, or you can take Inj methylcobalamine 1500 mcg alternate day. [6 doses



I hope that I have answered your query. Let me know if I can help you further.

Take care
