Welcome Kathy @kathylal, I'm glad to see that you are learning as much as you can about your condition and being your own best advocate for your health. There are many different neuropathy discussions you might find helpful and they are easy to find using the Connect search function. Here are the discussions, comments and other posts found when clicking on the search link at the top of the Connect page and typing neuropathy what helps - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/search/?search=neuropathy+what+helps.

Since you have had spine surgery I thought you might be interested in this discussion started by @jenniferhunter on Myofacial Release Therapy (MFR) - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/myofascial-release-therapy-mfr-for-treating-compression-and-pain/.

I agree with you about not jumping to conclusions which is also something I tend to do sometimes. Did your neurologist do any tests to confirm neuropathy?
