Hi @mjk216, Welcome to Connect. I don't have pain with my neuropathy, only numbness and haven't found anything that really gets rid of it, although I do take supplements for neuropathy in hopes that they will slow down or stop the progression. I shared my neuropathy journey in another discussion here - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/310341/.

I use Voltaren almost everyday on my shoulders and lower back to help with the pain from arthritis and it does help with my arthritis pain. There is another discussion you might find interesting:
-- Can small fiber nerves regenerate?: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/can-small-fiber-nerves-regenerate/

Quite a few members have started different discussions and posted comments on nerve regeneration. Here's a link that lists the search results of Connect if you want to scan through them - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/search/discussions/?search=nerve%20regeneration.

Thank you. PN is on my list for discussion with a doctor who's taking over the practice. Fresh start! Plan to keep an eye on this group before then and beyond. Thanks for your kind welcome.
