Giving Nooro a try

I have developed severe neuropathy in my toes over the past year. It has become very painful, and at times I have gone to bed wearing neuropathy sneakers. My doctor first prescribed Gabapentin, and when that didn't work, he put me on Pregabalin. My condition seems to be getting worse. I am now considering purchasing the Nooro foot massager. Does anyone have any experience with this product? I find mixed reviews on the web about it. Can anyone make any suggestions as to what can relieve the numbness and pain? Thanks.

Get plenty of information before purchase. Ask for specifics about this product. Return costs more than purchase. Comes from Russia!!!

Nerve pain creams like those with capsaicin or lidocaine, compression socks, alpha Lipoic acid, Acetyl l carnitine and magnesium supplements, and Cymbalta/Duloxetine has helped me. It is important to get to the cause of neuropathy so you can stop the progression (like manage diabetes/sugar levels, eliminate alcohol, reduce/avoid toxins, ensure not deficient or at toxic levels for Vitamin B6 or B12, make sure not iron deficient, etc.).

The only thing that temporarily helps my feet is my husband massaging them. Neurotin sometime helps pain but not weekness. How long were you on it?

I use ice socks from Amazon when nothing else works. They have never failed me!

I have just started chemotherapy for breast cancer. I wear ice socks/mittens and Cold Cap for 20 minutes before chemotherapy starts, all during chemo and 90 minutes after chemotherapy. From what I have researched it is supposed to help with Neuropathy side effects. Time will tell. I have 3 sets of them to switch out during chemo in a cooler packed with ice.

Are you sure you don't have Raynaud's Syndrome (Raynaud's Disease). ??? Check it out online. Check it out here for answers to dealing with it.
