@johnbishop thank you for the information and the support. I am definitely someone who will go full boat to find alternative treatments should conventional medicine not work. I know about the alternative vitamin regimen you have recommended to others, and I have also found a company here in San Diego that believes they have a cure for peripheral neuropathy that will go through a phase 3 trial this year. So much great research going on, I just hope to get clarity on why I am going this path if st all possible. Thank you for the support
