Hi everyone,

Sure it's of interesting articles on Neuropathy!!! There are over 10 million of us, over 100 different neuropathies, and most persons seem to be affected differently and at different stages0 if there is such a thing?!

I am an 81 year old Vietnam Veteran who was way up North in Vietnam near the DMZ from 1968 to part of 1970 and I did a whole lot of weed spraying over the years with various properties I owned and never wore a mask or gloves so I am sure all of this has contributed to me terrible regression and state with supposed Peripheral Neuropathy and now just started with sugar diabetes!! My feet are always on fire and numb like my hands and arms, I get winded easily, and the pain is nearly intolerable!! I am highly allergic to meds so can't really take anything for pain, but sure use Sombra each and every day and night all over my body that gies me a little edge on same but nothing to write home about!

I have tried nearly everything there is to try and all the "snake oils" out there that are a complete ripoff and waste of time, bummer! From my many trips to the ER Rooms, all kinds of testing and doctor opinions we have ALL pretty much given up. I am pretty sure my auto immune system is shot, my myelin sheath gone, and my nerves getting constantly bombarded!!! If and when someone finds some genuine and serious aids to help with all this constant and horrendous pain I will be a very happy man!!! Sad but true, that is my story!!!!! Semper Fi.

please try Alpha Lipoic Acid. you can get it at Amazon. It help me with the burning and pain somewhat. It bothers my stomach, so I eat before taking it. They have recently got this medication in a time release capsule, and it don't bother me as bad. I get Natrol Alpha Lipoic Acid time release 600MG 45 tablets. It is not expensive I think it was about $23.00. worth every penny to me. Good Luck
