A member asked:
I used to shoot up heroin.ive been sober for over 10 years now and i've been having a lot of numbness and tingling throughout my whole body and shooting pain in my legs. is there anything i can do to make it better?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Best approach to "make it better" is to uncover the cause. See your doctor and get evaluated for potential peripheral neuropathy or even a demyelinating disorder. This has no relationship to prior heroin, not used for 10 yrs.
