@gerriw76 I have idipathic neuropathy. I am 79 and was diagnosed over a year ago. I am still very active. The first medication the doctor prescribed for me was Baclofen. I was told its for spinal cord injuries and MS. This knocked down the horrible burning in my legs right away. Then as my symptoms progressed I was also given the regular Lyrica and Cymbalta which I did not take. I moved to the protocol I found on this site and many have used. Acetyll-Carnitine with Alpha-Lipoic Acid (Source Naturals), Liquid B12 5,000 with methylcobamin ( Pure Encapulations). I also added Nerve Ease (online only). I did research on this suppliment because I was so worried about comapnies taking advantage of us. I also start the morning with L-Glutamine powder (Swanson). Everything but the Nerve Ease I gleened from this site. Right now I am doing so much better. The night burning still happens, but its more of a background than forground. Hope this helps. Good luck!
