Your replies are so interesting ... The descriptions of Neuropathy that I read before I joined this group suggested that it was just a complication of diabetes that felt like tingles and needle sticks -- it's way more than that. I was already far beyond the 'needles and tingles' stage and experiencing acute pain; and I'm hypoglycemic, not diabetic, so I didn't know which end was up. I am learning from all of you that there are is a kaleidoscope of symptoms and remedies; most of us seem to be trying new things as we deal with the progression of our condition. It is helpful that we share information here. Peggy

Hi Peggy @pfbacon ... you have the key! We all share and learn what helps others and may work for us. The more we can learn, the better chance we have of helping ourselves (and hopefully our doctors if we find something that works for us).

Hello Peggy.

I'm diabetic with Peripheral Neuropathy. I have cut almost all sugar out of my life.

I also take 1,200 Mb's of Gabapentin 3 times a day. To help with the chronic pain it creates, I take 3 - 10 Mg Percocet's per day.

Those things help pretty well some of the time, but other times I suffer agonizing pain in both feet for a few hours until I am forced to take more medicine.

I occasionally apply salves that contain Lidocaine on both of my feet to help deaden the tingling, burning, painful and tingling in my feet.

I recently discovered a company that said they have developed a product called NERVE SAVIOR. To use it you take two pills a day and they say you can experience reductions in your discomfort within 5 days.

I haven't tried it out yet though. I'm planning to start using it very soon. I'll report my results using NERVE SAVIOR within two to 4 weeks after I start starting it. I don't know how long you need to take the ingredients contained in the pills. They do contain natural things including, a variety of vitamin's and natural substances that come exotic places.

I'll write back and let you know if the manufacturer was successful in preparing this life-improving product that's supposed to deal successfully with Peripheral Neuropathy .
God Bless you Peggy.
