Unhappy hubby
🧐 Recommendations Wanted 🤔
Pedes, I need some help. Hubs has severe peripheral neuropathy of feet. Has had for years, probably decades. Two days ago he stepped on hot asphalt barefooted and didn’t even realize he had second degree burns. Not until I noticed a sticky trail on my hardwood floors with blood in it. I’m treating with horse paste and bandages. I need some advice about some great patriotic movies to keep him settled once I have him sofa bound. Thanks!
Unfortunately, since my migraines are immune-related (actually inflammation of my brain inside the skull), nothing really helps much. Going gluten-free is helping, but the research says it can take up to two years to see significant benefit. I'm seven months GF. Tomatoes, yeast, food-additive gums, and msg are other migraine triggers. Doesn't leave much to eat! All my favorite foods are out.
In the meantime, I do a monthly injection of Aimovig, use triptans when needed, and switch between low-dose doxepin and amitriptylene to moderate the immune flareups. I'll check into the ivermectin, but my neurologist is a real jerk and it nearly takes an act of Congress for him to write a new prescription.
