@gnocchi Thanks for the information about acupuncture. I see that many people take Alpha-Lipoic Acid. I'll give that a try but will check with my Primary Care Doctor first to see what she thinks. I was taking a high dose of Gabapentin for months but don't think it was helping with the discomfort so weaned off it. Someone mentioned electrical stimulation at a certain frequency with a footbath and red light therapy. I hadn't heard of that for Neuropathy but sounds like something to look into. Haven't had my B12 tested but will ask the doctor if she'll add that onto my blood test. Has anyone had nerve testing done? If so, was it helpful for healing your neuropathy?

“ ” but if Neuropathy is the worst of life’s effects… count your blessings”

No sorry. Neuropathy has completely destroyed my life so I will not be counting my blessings for having neuropathy.
