Personally my neurologist said it is a waste of money. I guess you could try, but my neurologist will only suggest fact based treatments that are proven. He also said stem cell therapy is a waste of money. The only treatment that could potentially work is IVIG. But IVIG is not a one and done. I believe it would be a lifelong treatment.
@andrewbar I'm researching if there is true benefit for Red Light Therapy for peripheral neuropathy in the lower extremities.

One of the easiest and non-invasive ways to improve circulation is by using red light therapy. The diodes in the red light therapy device release photons of light of specific wavelength and intensity, which penetrate deep into the body and trigger a cascade of beneficial chemical reactions, especially the instant release of nitric oxide. This is one of the biggest benefits of using red light therapy. - HealthLight
WebMD source: In red light therapy, you expose your skin to a lamp, device, or laser with a red light. It uses an LED (light-emitting diode) that emits the correct spectrum of light. Red LED light travels deeper into the skin than blue LED light, which is sometimes used to treat skin surface conditions such as acne. When the light enters your skin, your mitochondria soak it up and make more energy, which helps cells repair themselves.

What is giving Infrared Red Light therapy results for you since your earlier postings in 2021? Anyone for peripheral neuropathy on the lower limbs?
Final question, does neuropathy typically strike one hemisphere, or if both might it be something else?

I did IVIG for 6 months and had no improvement,
