Improving neuropathy without spending a fortune - What actually helps?

I just purchased a"tens and Ems foot circulation stimulator" $75.
Used it 3 times. The vibration is felt up to the knees which is what I need. Too early to tell if it works.
Gabapentin works for pain at night.

I found them on Amazon both the capsules and gummies. Also found a supplement called Nervive.

Gabapentin, duloxetine, and Ortho Feet footwear. That’s what’s working for me. Accept the fact that there is no miracle cure. This is the new normal that is presented to me now. And I’ll deal with it to the best of my abilities. Aging & life require us all to make decisions & adjustments along the way. I’m satisfied with mine. I continue with fitness& strength training, and activity play golf.

I have been going to a Neuro Solutions Center (https://www.neurosolutionlc.com/) in Lake Charles, LA, and have seen my pain reduce from taking 3 gabapentin 3x/day to 1 gabapentin 3x/day after 6 treatments. They use a combination of red light therapy, low-level lasers, TENS, photobiomodulation, vibration plate, etc. I purchased a vibration plate for home (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B5SXZ973?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_1&th=1) as well as a red light device (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D7HKY49K?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_1) and use them both daily for 15 minutes...sometimes twice a day, morning and night. Vibration plate has helped TREMENDOUSLY with my balance.

My wife bought me a Nooro foot massager last fall to try something that might help with the pain, which is most severe when sitting. I am very skeptical about all these types of things, but I dutifully used it nightly for about 15 or 20 minutes for a few weeks. To my surprise, after a few weeks, it seemed to reduce my neuropathic foot pain by as much as 50% or more. After about 3 months, it would not recharge, so I discarded it and did not replace it. Well, I then began to notice the pain in my feet getting worse again and it was so bad that I decided, about a month ago, to fork out $100 for another one to try to reduce the pain again. I now use it every day for about 30 to 60 minutes while watching TV or reading. You do need to be barefooted. It may not work for everyone, but it did really help me to reduce the pain noticeably. I have not had any adverse effects using it. One tip is to not plug it in to recharge it until it needs it. I may have been recharging it too often. Everyone is looking for help of any kind and this is helping me. Good luck!

I quit alcohol and am confident that move alone slowed any advancement of numbness.

Great u cut solvent alcohol. Now boost B12 really high. METHYL COBALAMIN 50 Micro grams tablets under tongue. I take 3 daily.

Hi, my Neuropathy has no pain. I think I am fortunate to fall in that category as I have several friends who experience excruciating pain. The research that I have done indicates that Neuropathy is a lack of blood flow to your feet and your outer extremities. I have tried several appliances, including Nooro foot pad, which sends small electrical pulses through my feet up to my knees. After several months and not having any convincing positive results, I slowly wean myself away from the path.. What I have had some relief with is heated socks. Since blood flow and circulation is the root cause it made sense to me that by keeping my feet warm would enhance blood flow. I have been wearing heated socks for a little over a year and although I can't say that the Neuropathy is reversing, I do feel that it has slowed in its progress. Of course, this is not a controlled experiment, so results may differ from person to person. The heated socks I use are inexpensive and are available on Amazon. Approximately, $65. I am able to wear them 12 hours a day on one battery charge. I now have two pair of heated socks, but do not wear them to bed., but I do wear regular socks to bed to help keep my feet warm through the night. Hope this is helpful to someone.

Thanks for your insight. I have the heated socks also and yes they do help. I also experience the neuropathy with no pain.

cillyone,
Hi, glad it has helped you. I was wondering what else you have tried that you have had positive results with. I am about to purchase my first order of RYZE mushroom coffee. Have you heard about it or have you tried it.? or have you spoken to anyone or read about any reviews? If you have tried it and are pleased with the results, please write me back. Thank you.
