Neuropathy questions...

I wish I knew something that might help. I’ve had peripheral neuropathy from chemotherapy since 2005. It’s very frustrating and confusing for me. Sometimes I don’t know what’s what! My neurologist has never recommended any of the newer treatments, now that pn is being dx’ed more often. And seems to be taken more seriously by the medical community. Insurance doesn’t cover scrambler therapy. I want to find a new neurologist with whom I can have better rapport and who’s willing to suggest some newer things. I pray you find some relief.

I have peripheral neuropathy in my feet and legs. I take a lot of medication for different complaints and I strongly suspect my PN is due to one or all or interactions of my medication. What type of specialist could determine the answer. My GP seems unable to do it

Hi John, if it were me, I might try talking with my pharmacist. I think there are medication management specialists but I haven’t had the need to talk with one.

Do most of you take a magnesium supplement

I do along with other neuropathy supplements.

Nope, I tried taking it for several months with zero effects on my pain.

Hi John which magnesium do you use

Before the Protocol was available we used a couple of different ones, but I think the last one was Dr’s Best.

I had same experience. No impact on neuropathy, but Magnesium Threonate sure helps me fall asleep at night!!!
