If you took GLP-1s for weight loss, did it help your Neuropathy?

I was diagnosed with severe, bilateral peripherial neuropathy approximately 15 years ago.
About 2 years ago, I started into remission and am, now, receiving IVIG treatments every 3 weeks.
Turns out, I was improperly diagnosed.
What I do appear to have is CIDP, which typically has PN symptoms, but can go into remission, with or without medication.
In my case, the remission coincided, exactly, with: (1) daily consumption of cashews and (2) a weekly routine that included standing on thick carpet (which has an exertion effect similar to using an exercise waffle board).
Take your pick, but neither (1) or (2) were casual in nature.

Interesting. I went and read about CIDP.
How did you finally receive the correct diagnosis?
How did you decide the disciplines that you utilized that resulted in remission?
