Welcome @doctordeuce, You are so right about the fact that there are so many less than helpful devices on the market that are advertised as a cure for neuropathy. There is no cure but there are a lot of treatments that may be able to provide some sort of relief. We just have to find the one that works for us. The Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy has a pretty comprehensive list of the different treatments if you want to scan through them to learn more - https://www.foundationforpn.org/treatments/.

While you wait for others to respond, you might want to scan through the more than 250 discussions here on Connect when searching for "neuropathy what helps" - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/search/.

I don't have pain with my neuropathy, just numbness and some tingling. Early on in my quest to find something that would help I tried a Zopec DT-1200 for about 6 or so weeks but it didn't provide any relief for me - https://www.zopec.com/products/zopec-electrotherapy-for-neuropathy-and-pain.

My diagnosis is idiopathic small fiber peripheral neuropathy. Have you been diagnosed with a specific type of neuropathy? Do you have pain as a symptom?

@johnbishop I have peripheral neuropathy and the tingling is combined with pain, often it’s too painful to stand and walk.

@johnbishop Thanks for replying No I don't have pain, just numbness in my feet. Where did you have someone diagnose your Neuropathy???? I have a pacemaker and need to as my Cardiologist if the (NEURO Go) electric shock floor unit is okay to use with my pacemaker! Stay in touch as it is the best way to let others know of a new development!!!
