I have, it did nothing for me, but, I don't have true neuropathy. My symptoms were misdiagnosed for 9 years. Even though 2 EMGs and nerve biopsies were normal, I don't have diabetes, or spine issues. I have bilateral morton's neuroma (both feet) and nerve compression in my left foot. Due to sjogrens, my nerves are hyperactive. The neurologist and podiatrist in the FV system don't think to look into that. The Summit foot and ankle surgeons just dismissed me as having idiopathic neuropathy. You really do have to advocate for yourself.

I am trying red light therapy now. I have neuropathy in my calves near area and starting with my hands. This is due to my spinal stenosis both cervical and lumbar. Hoping red light therapy will work. I am also taking ozone. I’ll try anything.

Red light therapy did not work for me. Everyone is different.

@slspencer what specialist diagnosed sjogrens?

@drdavavet
I have occasional neuropathy with burning feet at night but I am using red light therapy for degenerative discs in my neck and back and it healed plantar fasciitis with a bone spur in my foot in a matter of a couple weeks. I walk 3-4 miles outside every day and when I developed plantar fasciitis and an injection/shoe inserts did not help I was desperate to find a solution because it prevented me from being able to take my daily walks. I ordered the Red Rush 400 and was absolutely amazed how fast it worked using it 10 minutes a day with the bottom of my feet about 6 inches from the device. Whenever I have an osteoarthritis flare up I use it on my neck and back and it never fails to alleviate the pain. I have never tried it for neuropathy because the burning feet happens so seldom and only lasts a day or two. Have you ever researched Protocol 525? It seems to have a lot of good reviews on the supplements it uses for neuropathy.

Hi Old Soul,
How is it working forb the degenerative discs?

@soby
I haven’t had any recent scans since I was first diagnosed several years ago but judging from the lack of pain, I am assuming the red light therapy is keeping the inflammation down and therefore the pain. I am 72 years old and have a lot of miles on my body so I am thankful I have found something that keeps me off NSAIDs.

Where did you locate the red light therapy?
