Yes! R-ALA and aceytl-l-carnitine was one of the first supplements I used...and I still do. I take PEA. I've also started using boswellia and turmeric. I take naproxen for the pain..3 a day. I'm not going to take gabapentin or the other drugs most doctors recommend. The podiatrist said there was a compounded cream she could prescribe. She said it was expensive and I don't think insurance covers it. I might try that.
