SFSN: Symptom Relief
Which meds/supplements/
therapies/approaches have afforded relief from symptoms of small fiber sensory neuropathy? Please report anything that affords any relief at all, regardless of how minor and/or how short - lived.
I would like to compile a list.
In my case, while reading/watching
TV, I get some temporary relief with
the following:
- frozen gel packs
- a vibrating footboard
- vibrating, heated slippers

1 Reaction@davehayward1 Interesting that you talk about the "tuning fork". 4 years ago I was diagnosed with peripheral poly neuropathy. I was told by the specialist my short nerves in my feet were dead or dying. This year I had another exam for my neuropathy. The doctor got out a tuning fork and used it on the top and bottom of my hands, I felt it. Then used it on the top and bottom of my hands, I could not feel the vibration. I looked it up later and the explanation I got that that my long nerves in my feet are dead or dying. The long nerve ending in my feet are not feeling the tuning fork since they are on the same frequency. As for my hands feeling the tuning fork, they only have short nerves. I could be wrong about all of this, but that is what I read.
