My husband had spinal fusion a few years ago for numbness and pain in his legs. This included severe tingling in his toes. About a year ago he started taking curcumin (with black pepper extract for bioavailability), 500mg twice a day for pain relief. He believes that it is the best thing he’s done since his surgery. It took a couple of months for it to become effective. This is different from neuropathy, but at least it’s responding to your original question. I hope you find some better answers.
Best of luck.

I am taking vitamin B12 and B6 together and they seem to work well in reducing the pain of neuropathy.

thank you

Hi, @justandie I had a laminectomy that helped alleviate severe pain in my hips and legs. Now I have radiculopathy with severe tingling/numbness in my feet. Spinal surgeon said a fusion "might help." Did your husband's fusion make any difference at all? Make it worse? Glad to hear the curcumin is helping. Best wishes! Mike

Yes, his spinal fusion did help, but it took a long time, about two years, for it to heal. With much walking and stretches for therapy, and occasional severe (but brief) pain even now. But the curcumin has helped a lot.
It is important to remember that this surgery MIGHT help. There are no guarantees. Evaluate your pain level now, and, hopefully, trust your surgeon.
Best of luck to you.

I just read that curcumin with black pepper may be hard on the liver,
