@bigal1956: Hi! I wish I had a cure I could suggest; however, I question if there is one. I have found lidocane type topicals very effective TEMPORARYILY! Some CBD creams, menthol based gels, Voleran cream, etc also give minimal amount of relief.
Balance and muscle/bone building exercise can help us from Falling! I do yoga (chair or floor) and am adding tai chi too! You may agree/disagree with my proactive approach, but then again you may see if this positively affects your neuropathy? We both know sitting on the couch doesn’t help! 🙂

Thanks for your feedback!
True, no cure so far. Luckily I don't have pain, but numbness. It looks like dizziness may come from drugs side effects. Originally the the numbness was attributed to Lumbar stenosis and afterwards to diabetes. I have declined surgery. So far exercises and physical therapy do help, but not a lot. I can not walk stairs, don't drive anymore. Do supplements help? Are there any unconventional alternatives?

I use lidocaine cream too and it does gives relief. Thanks
