Anybody out there tried ultrasound

Make sure you don’t have a compressed disc in your lumbar spine. This is done through an orthopedic surgeon. If so, ultrasound won’t help at all. If it’s really a neuropathy, then try increasing your intake of B12 and iron. That did it for me after years and years of annoying pain. I had surgery with all the bills and whistles, and it was great, but my nerves from my mid thigh to the top of my foot were damaged permanently and I have neuropathy because of it. Adding extra exercise on a stationary bike every day really helped, and then adding two eggs, bisglycinated iron pill, and B12 help relieve the neuropathy. Now I only have a little bit, but it’s very tolerable compared to what I had.

@loriesco My regular MD suggested a complete blood panel (19 vials) to rule out any vitamin deficincies, autoimmune etc. My results were all OK. Getting the blood panels is important to make sure you are not taking too much B12 or other vitamins.

@loriesco How long after your back surgery did you experience the neuropathy? Mine was a year and a half later.
