Hi Ray,
Seems so far based upon my research and yours as well, that medical science as it pertains to neuropathy has become akin to the
Italian chef throwing spaghetti against the wall to see what sticks.
Thanks for the two supplements you mentioned. I will look into them.
Although the science is questionable have
you tried a TENS device?

Hi, Bob

Yes, I have used a TENS device. In fact, it's lying around here somewhere. I bought it years ago, years before I was diagnosed with PN, and I was going to weekly PT, where my therapist suggested I try a TENS device. But at the time, I was being treated for run-of-the-mill Old Guy Instability. My therapist, who was sincere and knowledgeable, knew little about PN (of course, neither did I at the time). Neither she nor I could figure out why I wasn't improving according to her Old Guy Balance Program timetable. She applied a TENS device to me. I bought one and used it at home. After many applications, with no measurable improvement, I gave p on the TENS device. That's why I say it's here somewhere, probably in the kitchen drawer along with SuperGlue and assorted old screws.
