Has anyone found a treatment that helps with peripheral neuropathy?

Posted by bigjohnscho @bigjohnscho, Jul 1 10:27am

I suspect that everyone on this forum has been searching for a medication that helps their neuropathy and even though you no that all the internet claims are false we continue to waste hundreds of pounds. Desperation is a powerful force. Has any one been fortunate enough to find a genuine treatment. I just can’t believe that there are so many awful people who prey on our vulnerability and knowingly orchestrate such elaborate scams.

Yes. Since my trigeminal neuralgia I have learned that our nerves( including brain) are coated with an insulating fat called myelin.
When out diet is very high in B12, this insulation is continually renewed. If you look up on Google , the effect alcohol has on B12 absorption you will come to understand. Not to late. Fixed me last yr. Dr. has last week wrote on my file " non drinker" Now 83.

@aldi Aldi, I have taken Curcumin and Turmeric in the past and didn't think they did much for relieving PN. I think R-ALA ( Alpha lipoic acid) helps a bit. I'm also taking L-citruline/arginine to increase blood flow. That stuff may help a bit. I've tried a lot of things. Magnesium creams on feet several times in 24 hours may also help over time. My next experiment is to put my feet on soft earth for about 15 minutes a few times a week. Dirt is where all the antibodies come from, so it may have something in it for neuropathy. Cut carbs and alcohol. My best!

William, I just tried a cream thats good for people with both back and PN. I have been applying it up to four times a day and it’s made a great difference. It’s applied to a painful spots in the sacro Iliac areas,(not sure of spelling!)
It’s not expensive . It’s called QR or quick relief cream .
I’m also trying to cut carbs and eliminating alcohol. maybe I’ll try my feet in the dirt next. Good luck

Aldi,
Thanks for the info. I just started Nervionix cream and it seems to help a lot. I’ll order some QR and give it a try. Today is a good day for me to start Dirt Therapy. I’ll let everyone know if there is healing in the soil…in North Carolina. 😁

William,The stuff that goes into QR is like the stuff that’s injected in prolotherapy

Aspercreme and frankincense work for me. I have burning ankles and feet at night. These both seem to help.
