Haven't been doing the exercises that helped get me back to walking after my back surgery since they increase my discomfort. The neuropathy in my feet and legs started about 5 months after surgery. I mentioned that I've been going to acupuncture which, if anything, has made the neuropathy worse. I'm going to go back to Physical Therapy so I can learn some gentle exercises that won't be painful. Before acupuncture I could walk for 20 minutes or so. Hoping that the Physical Therapy will help me to be able to use walking as an exercise again. Thinking of stopping the acupuncture since it's been about 2 months and it hasn't helped at all. I mentioned starting Alpha-Lipoic Acid to my doctor and she said it's not likely that it will help neuropathy.
