Has anyone found a treatment that helps with peripheral neuropathy?

I read through the comments here, and find that I am in agreement with one thing that helps: Exercise.
I walk my dog. It got hot and she didn't want to walk much, and I noticed the pain and needles increased quickly. I now use an indoor treadmill.
I also started acupuncture. The research - as far as I can see - says it CAN help SOME people. I think that it has helped a bit, but I am not sure. And some insurance covers it to some extent.

I have had ideopathic small fiber neuropathy of feet for 18 years. It progressed in many different stages, Unfortunately walking for more than 10 minutes is very painful as is standing. I have tried everything recommended but stil am suffering. A coupe of the standard treatment (lyrica and gabapentin) have caused an anaphalactic reaction. There a and re many different forms caused by many different causes, some unknown as of now (me). I am glad exercise and acupuncture work for you. I hope you have found the best solution, You are lucky.
