Weakness in legs: Is this part of neuropathy?
Neuropathy | Last Active: 8 hours ago | Replies (24)Comment receiving replies
Has anyone tried the red light therapy? I have peripheral neuropathy. I have the spine stimulators they worked great for a year now not so much. I’ve had another fusion L4L3 I have been dealing with this for 35 years now after falling on ice. My balance is getting worse I keep walking hoping it will keep me out of a wheelchair.

Welcome @kekimmel, Quite a few members have tried red light therapy and I think it's a mixed review - helpful for some, not so helpful for others. Here's a link listing the different discussions and comments from members on using red light therapy for neuropathy: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/search/.
I'm glad to hear that you keep walking. I just wished I was able to walk more but I'm still thankful that I can walk even though not very fast or well. The Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy has a list of complementary and alternative treatments for neuropathy if you haven't already seen it - https://www.foundationforpn.org/treatments/.
Have you looked into other alternative treatments other than red light therapy?
