Welcome @weinham007, Sorry to hear the medication isn't helping with your neuropathy pain. If you haven't already seen the website, the Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy (https://www.foundationforpn.org/) has a good list of supplements, including the ones you are starting, that have shown to help with neuropathy in their document of complementary and alternative treatments here - https://www.foundationforpn.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Complementary-and-Alternative-Treatments-Revised-2020-final.-1.pdf.

There are also quite a few discussions on diabetic neuropathy you might want to scan through. Here is a link that shows the discussions and comments - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/search/?search=diabetic+neuropathy.

Have you been diagnosed with diabetic neuropathy?

Hi,
Thank you for every bit of info you gave me to look up on the sites you listed. I have been to the foundation for peripheral neuropathy site and really feel there might be something there for me to try!

I have book marked the three sites and will gather notes for me on vitamins and teas to use in foot baths.

To answer your question, I have been diagnosed with Diabetic Pneuropathy about 4 years ago, after my spinal fusion surgery. I have screws in my back and a donor disk in an area of my back. I do wonder if that was the beginning of my feet first feeling PN. I talked to my surgeon and told him my feet were “running” I couldn’t calm them down. Then breast cancer surgery and radiation. I started with the sand paper feeling on my body.

Anyhow, thank you again for the information 🙂
