Looking to connect with people who have non-diabetic neuropathy

I found that stretching seems to agitate the nerves and makes the pain and needles worse. Everyone is different. I have a bottle of ALA and it says to take 2 tablets on an empty stomach, and 2 total 1,500mg. I have not tried it yet. Maybe I should start with just one. Have you noticed any difference with it? If so, after how long? Thank you.

I haven’t taken ALA, but others in this group have and found it helpful without side effects.
It’s something sim thinking about taking myself.

ALA is very effective for me in reducing foot numbness. I started with 300 mg per day for two years before numbness began to advance. Then, I increased the dosage to 600 mg per day. It again reduced the numbness for me. Note: I do this with my primary's oversight to make sure no conflicts develop with other meds I'm taking.
