I am 61 and all of a sudden, I started having numbness in my right big toe. Then to my right foot, then also left foot, and now even my legs tend to vibrate. Went to neurologist. MRI of back came out negative. Has now put me on neurontin 300 mgs 3 times a day. Has anyone taken this and has it helped. I don't know where this neuropathy came from. Right out of the blue and got bad fast. My doctor hasn't tested me for MS yet probably because of my age. I'm scared to death that I'm going to be paralyzed or something. I feel the tingling all the time in my feet. In the beginning it didn't bother me when I laid down but now it does. Any suggestions or hope. Thanks.
P.S. even since this started, I have been having chills - no one seems to make any connection between the chills and neuropathy. Also started having bladder problems at same time. Am so confused.

I took a Neurontin and next day my hands seemed to be kind of numb too. Scares me as I thought it was isolated to my feet and legs. Eye got blurry. And that is only after one pill. Did you have symptoms like that that eventually went away.
