@johnjp I agree with you about the health care in America, I take Alpha Lipoid Acid for my Neuorapathy, It helps greatly with the burning sensation. It stops the burning . I take 600mg morning and 600mg at night. It is what is in the expensive Neuropathy medicine, but they do not put enough it their. you can get different strengths. I started with 300mg but had to increase. It will not hurt you, but the only thing is it burns my stomach unless I eat before taking it. or eat after you take it. It really works and is not expensive. you can get it at Amazon. Good luck and God Bless
