Hi David,
Just want to make sure I correctly understand your post. The capsaicin cream made your foot neruopathy worse? I get the occasional stab of pain - usually at the end of my big toes. I have the numbness as well. I haven't done anything for this. Part of the numbness pre-dates my wegs experience - isolated to the left big toe when I pinched a nerve during a spinal episode. However, I've noticed more numbness since my dx in 2011. At the moment, it seems to be subsiding a bit, but it never goes completely away. I've added a daily turmeric supplement (CuraMed 750 mg) to my diet. It's reduced the pain I experience in my left hip, and may be helping with the foot neuropathy.
