Has anyone had success with Red Light therapy for foot neuropathy?

You might consider a spinal cord stimulator.

Nerve Regeneration & Repair: The therapy stimulates ATP production in cells, providing the energy needed for damaged nerve fibers to repair and regenerate. I have used a red light boot for my SFN for a few months now. It is my understanding that it takes some time to regenerate nerves. It also involves addressing the cause of you neuropathy. Your nerve damage didn’t happen overnight and will probably take a long time to repair them if possible. It is a comforting heat if you have cold feet sensations. I’m sticking with it. I will do whatever it takes to help alleviate my Small Fiber Neuropathy. Good luck to you. Think positive!

@johnbishop thank you for your input, and for sharing the links. I got a referral for a neurosurgeon years ago, but never followed through on it. My pain clinic nurse who made the referral thought it would likely be a fusion of some kind. I had an older cousin who had back surgery and he flat out told me years ago, don’t let ‘em cut you open, which scared the heck out of me. I’m sure there have been many advancements in procedures since then, but it’s still worrisome. I might have reached the point where I might not have a choice anymore though. Thank you again for your input—much appreciated.

I'm fairly sure my PN is caused by spinal nerve compression, but my "SPECIALISTS" offered no solutions!! This was at a pain clinic!
They said we'll that's all we can do.
Anyone out there have different outcomes?

@gcapling thank for your response. I’ve started a methylated B12 formula that also includes B1 and B6. I’ve heard some people say too much B can make things worse, but I’m careful to not take too much. As you know, the Gabapentin and DULoxetine only “work” to mask the pain, while not addressing the root cause. My neurologists told me the tests they performed on me were in the normal range, which seemed impossible. Herbal supplements containing Prickly Pear are allegedly used with success in Europe, so I just started today trying that too. Not expecting miracles, but I’m hopeful to stop the progression and achieve some relief. Thank you again for your response.

@keifriffards I have never heard of the Prickly Pear remedy; however, I have always noted that Natural medicine in Europe is miles ahead of North america. I must research that. Remember B vitamins are water soluble so we tend to pee whatever is not used in the therapeutic process
I try to not be excessive as well. It makes me crazy when I hear what some doctors tell those suffering from neuropathy. It is a slow journey when we are trying to heal and restructure our fractured nerves. I only compare month to month past and never day to day. Best of recovery to you!

Yes. About five years ago at age 80, I started Class 4 Laser treatment to correct by shuffling while walking. Took about nine months of weekly sessions to restore my gait to normal, which has enabled me to play Pickleball 3X/week. I have had numbness and tingling on both feet to 4" above my ankles, but no pain for about ten years. I also workout, elliptical and stationery bike which has helped me.

@keifriffards You owe it to yourself to get information so you can make an informed decision. Spine surgery has had a lot of advancements. It really depends on how much the spine changes in time due to aging after an injury. For me that was close to 20 years, and I developed spinal cord compression because of a collapsed disc with bone spurs and there was no answer except surgery. I have no regrets. A gifted surgeon at Mayo gave me my life back and solved all the pain and dysfunction. I do work on loosening tight muscles to keep everything moving well. I had a one level cervical fusion at C5/C6,
