i suffer from foot neuropathy due to taking a low dose antibiotic for 8 months to ward off recurring UTI's. I am currently taking Lyrica. I am only taking it for two weeks. i have read that there are many side effects. CBD oil is very popular in the U.S. Has anyone tried CBD oil for relief? If so, do you take it orally or use it topically?

I take it you took Cipro or Fluoroquinolone. If so many here have your problem.
I have been taking CBD oil for a few months but it has not really helped with that.

Hi Derek,
Thanks for the info. I took MACROBID for 8 months to ward off urinary infections.

So other antibiotics can also cause neuropathy.

Unfortunately, this is true.

My Cipro problems of neuropathy and tendonitis were dormant after the initial weeks after taking the drug until a follow up antibiotic CLARITHROMYCIN and the cardiac drug Bisopprolol each later triggered my now wider range of symptoms.
