Has anyone tried acupuncture for neuropathy?

I have been goingg every other week for two years, It has not gotten ride of the numbness or loss of balance but I keep going because my wife thinks it has helped and I might be worse if I had not tried it.

I just got back from having another EMG. I have had pain numbness and itchiness from nerves in the neck and back areas. I drop things frequently and I have poor balance. I have been diagnosed with Meniere's for a long time. EMGs never show anything. They never find anything, it is very frustrating.

I have been using Acupuncture for several years. I first started after several foot operations for nerve damage and it worked very good. Then I used it for back and neck pain which also worked. Now I do use it for Numbness and tingling in arm and hands and it also is working. I have a great Acupuncturist! I also convinced my Insurance to cover several visits per year. You can search sites to try to find one that accepts your Insurance or call your insurance to see who they cover. Also check Acupuncturist reviews. Getting a great acupuncturist is key

Thanks for the reminder! I've gone twice and need to start up again with my multiple conditions. It helps with so many different things

Has anyone tried to get relief that helps PN, RLS , sleep by taking magnesium glycinate? That specific one is said to be far easier on the stomach?

I do take magnesium glycinate due to my blood studies showing I am almost always low. Not sure if it helps with PN pain as I also take pregabalin. I take 400mg prior to sleep but never have had trouble sleeping.

To help with sleeping. I take Chamomile Tea

@arnrob thank you Amy. I appreciate your input.

THANKS! Will try!

@jc19 When you when for acupuncture, did you get relief from pain after the first session, or, did it take multiple sessions to begin feeling better? I have tried just about everything else.
