I am forever getting ads from one of those call us and setup an appointment we can help you fix your neuropathy. I struggled with SFPN for 15+ years without getting a diagnosis mainly due to the fact I only felt numbness and a little tingling in my legs (started in my toes). So after my diagnosis in March I started my quest for alternative treatments that would help relieve the numbness. Looked into one that an elderly friend (who am I kidding, I'm old too!) went to but she has lots of money. When I found out it normally takes 12 to 15 treatments before it starts showing any results at $150 to $350 a pop, I decided there has to be something wrong with this. My friend still thinks it's doing her good. I've have learned to be careful when looking into alternative treatments. Here is a good article that talks about different scams - https://www.foundationforpn.org/2016/04/11/5179/.
