Medications & Peripheral Neuropathy - Part 2
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Medicines are meant to help, not harm. But sometimes taking too many drugs can be dangerous.

Although some medications can save lives, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention indicates “Americans buy much more medicine per person than any other country”.

World statistics reveal that the United States is the most over-medicated country, resulting in drug-disease interactions.

This is a frequent culprit with so many new peripheral neuropathy cases. More and more people are developing peripheral neuropathy which is being labeled as idiopathic, meaning of unknown origin. When in fact, the origin of the nerve damage is due to one or more of the medications that are currently prescribed for these people.

I can’t impress enough how important it is for each person to be informed because most doctors are only aware of 1 or 2 possible side effects, at best, from each drug they prescribe.

So, in this video, which is the second part to: Is Your medication causing neuropathy? I’m going to uncover even more commonly prescribed medications that are linked with causing nerve damage.

San Antonio Neuropathy Center
Dr. Monteiro and Dr. Coppola are the founders of the San Antonio Neuropathy Center where they’ve been helping people recover from neuropathy for over 18 years. Their services have been sought after from people throughout the United States and Internationally. Their unique approach is drug-free, non-surgical and helps relieve neuropathy symptoms while restoring function and repairing damaged nerves.

NUPHORIA cm
Dr. Coppola and Dr Monteiro also developed a neuropathy product line called NUPHORIA cm designed specifically to help their patients recover faster from neuropathy. Once available only to their patients within their clinic, NUHORIA cm is now available to the public at:

A couple of years ago my freind weighed over 400 lbs and was diabetic. The doctor wanted to put her on more medicine because she wasn't doing well. She got mad, said that she wasn't overweight and had no problems until they put her on medication. So she quit seeing the doctors, stopped taking all medications and went on a super low carb diet and started walking for exercise. Two years later she just got her weight down to 190 lbs and is officially not diabetic anymore. She also just turned 78 years old. She looks fantastic and feels amazing.

We, as Americans, must make a concerted effort to be proactive in our own health. In America, there is not enough emphasis on PREVENTION of illness.

Got finger infections out of nowhere, no cuts, good hygiene, and the MDs bombarded me with strong antibiotics. After finishing the 3 courses of the antib my health went havoc for quite a while. Now, I learned the lesson and am taking 1 raw garlic per day with coconut yogurt, as a natural antib, and if finger infections start to give some signs of returning, then I soak the finger(s) in a iodized fine salt, add extra salt over the infection and - voilà. I’m doctoring myself as often as possible to save my health.

At one time I took anti-anxiety medication which then led to restless leg syndrome and a diagnosis of Sjogrens Syndrome. I also took medications for migraines and acid reflux. I also took allergy medication. Two years ago I changed my diet by giving up sugar from my diet and by eating once a day. I started feeling better than I had in years so I decided to ask my Dr if I could start to wean off my medications to see what would happen. Happily I no longer take any medications with the exception of an allergy medication that I take only when they flair up. I no longer have anxiety, restless leg syndrome, no sjogrens, no migraines, no acid reflux. I’m 63 and feel better than I have in decades.

I've been on enbrel for some years & my moms been on metformin for several years we both have nerve issues because we thought we were in good hands. I'll take this information when we both go into our first app with a neurologist. Thank you for your hardwork & dedication to getting vital information out to the world. Much love from Canada 🇨🇦. You deserve millions of subscribers 😊

I can't understand how these meds can still be on the market!! I took Gabapentin for about four years and told my doctor it didn't seem to do anything. He didn't seem to react so I slowly weened myself off of it and sure enough I was convinced it was not doing anything for me. I've been off of it four or five years now and I'm fine!

The most significant concept to all the medical difficulties is STOP STRESS !....In My case that was cutting loose a wife of 38 years . Had I done that earlier, cleaned up my food shortcomings, took vitamins I would not have had the health issues. Happiness factor up 100 percent.

Happy to say at age 76 I take no medications prescribed or otherwise. My wife 46, takes 15 prescribed drugs and is a wreck due them. I am American but have lived in Central America since 2013. Past 6 years in Costa Rica. I am a Us Army Vet and the VA used to medicate me for all kinds of unnecessary things. I quit with them in 2009.I served 32 year in the US Army and severely wounded 4 times. I still carry two AK 47 bullets next to my spine and in my right kidney. My left arm held together with titanium for over 50 years. Had a broken left knee cap at age 15, shot in the right knee with a 45 when 29. But that doesn't stop me from walking 12 to 15 kilometers a day. Nor dose the 2wo titanium plates and 26 screws prevent me from bench pressing 110 kilos. Only thing I can do that is both impressive and safe. It would never take horizontal strain. Oh yeah its painful at times, but try to ignore it and it goes away in a day or two.

This video needs to be brought to TV channels. What I suspected years ago and I did stop some of the meds myself. Dr. Was mad, I did not care.I was happier

[HansLindh-bi]

Something that I would appreciate is patients testamonials, patients that can describe the journey they had healing PN, how long it took, was it hard with increased pain and finally their "new" life. This would be a massive inspiration for us who just started. Many thanks for opening my eyes.

I had shingles and had been battling with so much burning pains, itching of the site for more than five years
Medications prescribed had not helped, I didn't know how to get rid of this pain, but I am happy with the information I got today from from you, knowing that nerves can regenerate with the appropriate nutrients.
You are the best .
Love from Nigeria

Lyrica almost killed me. Gabapentin didn't work at all and made me lose almost all of my hair. For me, it is better to suffer with neuropathy, then to suffer all of these side effects.💔

I was prescribed a medication for muscle relaxer/muscle spasticity. I developed. It initially seemed to prevent me from sleeping. I switched it to the morning. It seemed that the spasticity increased. My doctor said to take the medication a certain way. I took 1/2 and started experiencing less spasticity but it continued with weird tightness and weakness. Now I'm taking 1/4 which now I feel and am moving much closer to normal. Amazing how a little 2 mg tablet can do so much. This med long term side effects includes kidney damage, dizzy, muscle weakness and I experienced tingling in my legs, and it has negatively affected my blood pressure. Thank you doctor for acknowledging these supplements. I use them to help with the MS.

[ChasTerran]

Incredible knowledge, information and presentation. You genuinely seem to care. Thats nearly impossible to find in today's world.

[jackwaycombe]

Oh my word. I'm T2 diabetic and my neuropathy has been getting worse lately. My doctor lectured me on my diet - and doubled my metformin dose.
Need to arrange a conversation.

[michelealdworth]

Hi there. The best part of your video is the end with your adorable cat. Remember Rx a cat for high blood pressure and depression and the don't have any side effects baring the cleaning of the kitty litter box. Love your videos they have clear and concise information. Stay safe out there. Take care and God bless.

[wandagraycar]

There are no words to Thank you for your videos. By the end of this video, I was in tears, knowing that I’m not crazy with my symptoms. And now I know that the Gabapentin I’ve been taking for Fibromyalgia has caused my Neuropathy.

[lesmith]

I've had IPN for about 12 years. This info you provided sounds like the best I've heard in a long time. Thank you.

[michelelindseth]

My PCP and 2 specialists had me on 15 different
drugs. It caused me many problems, not the least of which was loss of consciousness. I sent each MD a list of what l was taking and who Rx'd what. Never even got a phone call from one. Now l take
four drugs and am much better.
