@summertime4, sorry I missed your first post and thanks to Rachel @rwinney for bringing me back into the discussion. I posted my initial story on my small fiber PN and numbness and links to the supplements and how I found them earlier here: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/anyone-here-dealing-with-peripheral-neuropathy/?pg=42#comment-65985

I've been taking the supplements since Sept 2016 and noticed an improvement after 2 months when the numbness that was just below the knees seemed to go to just above the ankles. It stayed there until recently when I've started to notice some feeling in my feet and toes but they also still feel numb too...kind of hard to describe but it does feel better. Part of the improvement may be due to losing a little weight which I'm still working on, more exercise (not real intense stuff) and a new exercise device called the Sand Dune Stepper
(https://www.sanddunestepper.com/) that I use daily for 30 to 60 minutes in 15 minute increments throughout the day. It feels good on the feet and is basically walking in place but there are a lot of other exercises that you can do with it. I originally bought it because I thought it would help improve my balance and I do think it is helping. I also wear low cut white socks to bed every night more to protect the feet and let me know if I've stepped on something without knowing it and injured the foot. Before I put the socks on each night I put body lotion on my feet and legs to keep the skin moisturized which I think also helps if you are an old coot like I am 🙂
