I also have small fiber neuropathy that started in my feet and has traveled upward. In addition to this, I have many other spine/autoimmune conditions. My spine issues include cervical/lumbar severe stenosis, degenerative disc disease, etc. I am currently 54 and burning, pins and needles, prickling pain in feet started in 2017.

Hi @asalat76, My healthcare provider (PA) is a nutritionist and recently she suggested I take 600mg R-Alpha Lipoic Acid (stabilized) daily. She suggested I take this for peripheral neuropathy. She also prescribed 5% lidocaine transdermal patches. We hope this will help with the pain in my lumbar sacral spine along with the lipoic acid. My nerve damage came from the radiation and chemo treatment I had for cancer 10 years ago. And because of that, I experience referred pain from my back to my feet (my right foot). I call myself "a work in progress" because I am improving some but not enough to shout out in blissful glee from a higher place. I hope you find relief soon. Best, CB
