@putsy it sounds to me like you are doing everything, and more to help yourself. Mayo is always overwhelmed so I’m not surprised you couldn’t get an appointment. It is very hard when you have gone through all their “hoops” and they turn you down.

There is no cure, no magic bullet that will cure Neuropathy. Those of us with Neuropathy are in pain. There are scammers out there who prey on us. They try to sell us lotions, potions, and gadgets that don’t work.

I’ve had Polyneuropathy for 10 years as a result of an autoimmune disease. There is one supplement I take that helps a little it’s Alpha-Lipoic Acid (ALA) I take 600mg. twice a day.

I wish you the best!

Same here, I've been dealing with idiopathic neuropathy for 10 years now, and I've been taking the same dose of ALA for several months. That, along with 3600mg of gabapentin a day.
