I have sufered with perif. neuropatthy for over 15 yers. No pain, only-leg numbness. No neurolgist or any othera doctors give any hope of some treatment that may or may not help. Eveyone needs to work on this using any and all ideas.

Hello @eas1941, Welcome to Connect. I too have had peripheral neuropathy with no pain and only numbness and some tingling in my legs and feet for many years. I shared my neuropathy journey in another discussion here - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/310341/. I think one of the best things we can do to help ourselves is to learn as much as we can about our condition and what treatments are available that may provide some relief. My favorite go to site for learning more about neuropathy is the Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy - https://www.foundationforpn.org/.

There is another discussion you might find helpful:

Have you found anything that provides some relief from the numbness?

I so agree. Seems like they don't feel like we are worth the extra time and rxpense to study neuropathy
