What do you do for Neuropathy itch?

Well, I had shingles in my late 20’s on my back. I’ve had itchiness since then...who knows if it is related to SFN or result from shingles?

Does the itch from your shingles still bother you much? In another discussion another member named Jeri @jerid also has had shingles recently. She started using a Cold Laser Light device on it and has had some remarkable results according to her. Here is the link to the first post I read from her about this:

You can check out her profile to see all of her posts about this (they are under a few different discussions). After reading what this device has been doing for her I bought a unit as well ($1000 on Amazon, but returnable now until end of January). Another member, @bunnyp also bought one almost the same day I did. We both got ours for less $$ as it was Amazon Prime week, but as you know, you can return it for a full refund. I just thought you might be interested.

My wife is using it for the PN in her feet (today was the 13th day of using it). No results yet (except for some oddly different "feelings"-promising? who knows) but she plans to keep going for at least another week or two, then decide where to go from there. Best, Hank
