Please, try a foot soak. Fill with water, a couple cups of vinegar, a couple cups of Epsom salt. After soaking pour some baking soda on. It's not a cure but a relief. Let me know if it does anything for you. I do it before bedtime. If the burning persists i roll a frozen water bottle under each foot. I feel your pain. Retired and 68 and have had idiopathic neuropathy for about two years now. No known reason. I've tried all of the buy one bottle for $79 or 6 for $39 ea. Don't work for me. I did find ground cayenne pepper and baking soda a half teaspoon each in a shot of water helps. Again, not a cure.

Hello @tbucksr, Welcome to Connect. Thanks for sharing what helps with your idiopathic neuropathy. If you haven't already seen the list of complementary and alternative therapies for neuropathy, the Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy keeps a pretty comprehensive list that might be worth taking a look - https://www.foundationforpn.org/therapies/.

What are the symptoms that bother you the most?
