Neuropathy, A Pain in My .... Hands!

A few years ago I was diagnosed with Neuropathy due to a herniated disc. During my pregnancy, I had no issues with it, but the moment he was born, it came back full force. I am on medication for it, but it still is bugging me. Sometimes my whole hand goes numb and it can be on both sides, then I get extreme pain. I used to take Medical Marijuana for it, but stopped when I found out about baby and haven't continued because I am breast feeding. This one thing makes it so hard for me to do many things. Does anyone else deal with this?

I have neuropathy. The doctor had given me first Pregabalin but now they changed it to a month of Duloxetin. Then it seems I´ll go back to my Pregabalin.

I wonder if they will change mine. I am on Gabapentin. It worked for a bit, but doesn't seem to be anymore.

I take a low dose of cannabis and some Tylenot ( all prescribed by my doc) for all the pain I get. It helps but not 100%
