Hi @maryv449,

You may be right about the link between low vitamin B12 levels and neuropathy. Like most vitamins, B12 can’t be made by the body. Our bodies need vitamin B12 to make red blood cells, DNA, and carry out other functions. So, we have to get it from food or supplements.

I have been doing some research on ultrasound and the charot foot, peripheral neuropathy. I do have an ultrasound machine and it helped me when I had a heel spur. I am researching if this would help the burning feet and for people with numbness. One can buy it at this site for $44.95 free shipping if you buy a bottle of the get to get it to $49. This is the least expensive that I found, https://www.tenspros.com/portable-ultrasound. Mine, I bought 8 or 9 years ago ($175) and when I get back home for Xmas, I am going to try it. I will let you know if it helps at all or not. To me it is worth a shot. https://intermountainhealthcare.org/blogs
