Has anyone tried NeuroGenica and found it helped

I suffer from diabetic neuropathy and have had a hard time finding anything that alleviates the pain and discomfort except for prescription pain drugs which I use sparingly. Any suggestions?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Neuropathy Support Group.

Welcome @ciao7, Sorry to hear that you haven't found anything that helps alleviate the pain from your diabetic neuropathy. I have not tried it but looking at their website gives me great apprehension that it is just another neuropathy "cure" scam. It does have a few of the supplements that have been shown to help some folks with neuropathy but my at the top of the site I see a link "How it woks?" which is a typo or a hasty built website to sell a product.

You are not alone in your search for what helps. You might want to scan through the following discussion to learn what others have shared.

I just saw an article about an FDA approved treatment to help neuropathy called RelieVR.com. It is a virtual reality headset with an assortment of programs designed to help refocus one's thoughts away from their pain. It has a helpful rating of about 50% in reducing neuropathic pain. Might be worth looking into.

Sounds like it's using brain neuroplasticity. It's an interesting topic and we have a few discussions and member comments on the topic. Here's a search link - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/search/discussions/?search=neuroplasticity.
