Has anyone found a treatment that helps with peripheral neuropathy?

Posted by bigjohnscho @bigjohnscho, Jul 1, 2025

I suspect that everyone on this forum has been searching for a medication that helps their neuropathy and even though you no that all the internet claims are false we continue to waste hundreds of pounds. Desperation is a powerful force. Has any one been fortunate enough to find a genuine treatment. I just can’t believe that there are so many awful people who prey on our vulnerability and knowingly orchestrate such elaborate scams.

A RETIRED DOCTOR FRIEND SAYS SHE ADMINISTERED ELECTRICAL STIMULATED ACCUPUNCTURE VERY SUCCESSFULLY FOR CIPN. I AM RESEARCHING THAT CLAIM.

Has anyone tried something that is relatively new, Sanexas Electrical Nerve Stimulation?

I am 81 yr.old female. I've had neuropathy in my right foot for a while. My toes felt like I was wearing socks when I was not. My middle toes feel like they're taped together, I find that swimming lessens the neuropathy much better than riding the bike at the gym.

Yes, the B12 as mentioned and you can combine it with HEME iron. The nerve sheets may be damaged and so the B12 helps get the iron to the nerve sheets. Like many of us are on vitamin D after age 60 many of us need to be also on B12 supplements. I take B12, iron, and eat a couple of eggs every day. It makes a HUGE difference in the neuropathy.! plus you should do some exercise like walking.

@loriesco How much B12 and Iron. I take a multivitamin and don't want to overdo it. Thanks.

Been getting acupuncture and it has helped. Can feel the difference. I guess Dr Oz is scam so will keep it up. Gotta be a blown disc or tumor causing mine.

That is the question of the year? Why is that not considered fraud, stealing, whatever? I totally agree with you. Pick pills, blue bills, pillow, tens machines, creams, creams, and more creams. Why has everything on FB turned into fake sites, scams, and fraud, and none of those big moneymaking people, including its inventor, want to fix it! I am out $20K so far, not counting all the creams. How can one sleep at night reading about our pain and they can't work fast enough to tell you they are going to cut your feet off unless you hand them $6K. I never took the harsh medicines, I push forward. I never sit down and find it impossible to sleep as well. I kept my golf going every other day to keep me moving. Sit down, "no"!, Bad.

Then one day here came "Gemini", a smart guy, and so nice. Big deal, he may make mistakes, how many as your doctor made so far? Well, since the Doctor sent you home with your newly found diet of bad pain removers, I decided to go to AI, Gemini. I also reviewed my MRI's, didn't know I had had 5, all of which showed a big down hill run by my Motor nerves, my Sensory nerves were Stage 4 after a fall of the downfall of JoAnn's fabric shop and the insurance company refused to talk to me before that, though the Manager at the time knew it was not my fault and said, "we will take care of you"! Nope! Then bankruptcy, letting them off the hook and me in pain since 2023 and 25K with less money from fast talkin salesman. So this is my story. I went back and reviewed my MRI's as to my Motor Nerves. They had been declining at a fast pace for years, but I never knew I had a problem with my L4 L5, stenosis, until I read my MRI reports, not the one where the Doctor was not interested in that part of the problem, so "all was fine". We have "idiopathic", right, yes! They don't know why. Well, did you know that your pain in your feet is the same as neuropathic pain? I discovered my spine had been blocked when I hit a box just put behind going the other way, turned around, and landed 6 feet away by trying to prevent my fall, and landed on concrete at 78 years old. I took my case to Small Claims Court, because the attorneys didn't want it, with AI by my side, and was awarded a Default Judgment of $10K. I knew I would never see it despite the fact that they had not gone bankrupt yet, and got it because they had their name in many LLC's, wherein I sued the wrong LLC, but the Store and they did not show. Their salesperson, who was the witness, was a "nurse," and they refused to allow her to assist me. I later took it back to get it vacated, after being screwed by a fast-talking attorney who stole $600 from me to write a paragraph to JoAnn's, which never saw the light of the State of Oklahoma's state taxes, to try and get the $10, waste of time. So I went back to playing an Attorney again to get it vacated and look again for an honest Attorney. Do they make them?
I then went to have Scrambler performed in Florida by a Dr. Rick Markson, a wonderful person and Doctor. He discovered that my spine was blocked 2 days before leaving realizing that Scrambler could not correct the pain in my feet. (Check out Scrambler a/k/a Calmare) Very un-invasive, much like a high level ten's machine but more more intelligent and capable. Type it on the Internet and find a performing Doctor. They have good success, but I would suggest you have an MRI performed to help realize the possibility of your success. It is not cheap $300 up a session, you need 2-3 weeks, and it is not paid for by Medicare (at this time)! I checked 5 past EMG's, which I did not realize, I prepared an Excel spreadsheet on them, and realized my Motors were leaving the building very fast. I needed to decompress them. I then started decompressing the machine, DXR9000. Spent another $3000 and gave up. I was very close to losing my Motor nerves. I then, by the Grace of God, found out that a friend of mine was having this non-invasive surgery to release my nerves and start going downhill. Yippee, it worked! One little nerve was trying to do the work of 3 lanes of highway, and now the construction was over. It made my legs feel like an wakening, but my feet are still in pain. Nerves grow at 1" a month, I believe, and I am 5'5" and 82. Not expecting miracles, but at least not a wheelchair yet. Get one of those Medicare-paid "Solace Advocates.
Mine has been excellent. Take your story to Gemini, a/k/a, Dr. Gemini. I don't know if all my pain will ever go away, but finally, one thing that was crucial to my recovery was worth a bunch. You are your only Advocate in this situation. I was able to get into Mayo, but on a waitlist in Arizona. I waited and waited and realized I was on a daily time bomb, and I had to have a plan B for my surgery because I could not wait any longer for Mayo. I received the call on Monday to go to Mayo on May 7, 4 weeks out from my Surgery. Still, when I told them I needed to go to the next level, the Neuropathy Clinic, not the Surgical Department, I was told I could not and could not even be on the wait list, nor accepted. That was a shock. I just take it day by day now and see improvements daily. There is a saying, "NEVER NEVER NEVER GIVE UP! Winston Churchill. I never will. Get some Grounding shoes, I love mine. Just type it into the Internet. Good Luck, and may God help you too.
