Hi Barry @user_che214927, I'm sure you feel very passionate about the relief you get for your peripheral neuropathy by using Neuroplasticity. There is a lot we still don't know about the brain and it's powers. I'm no expert but I'm not sure I could make a blanket statement about Neuroplasticity being the only answer for relief from the pain and discomfort caused by peripheral neuropathy. I'm not a big fan of some of the medications being used to treat peripheral neuropathy but that is just my personal opinion. If people are able to get relief from their pain caused by nerve damage, it's a good thing for them and I really hope it keeps working for them.

I do feel that Neuroplasticity and the drugs are accomplishing the same thing using different methods but I have no training or medical background so it's just an opinion. I think that Neuroplasticity is "training" the brain to not feel the pain, whereas Gabapentin and other seizure type medications are "tricking" the brain to block the pain signals that are received from the damaged nerves.

I guess the bottom line for me is that if works for you, relieves your pain and it is doing no harm to your body, then it is a good thing and your answer for relief from the pain. If I had pain with my PN, Neuroplasticity would definitely be on my bucket list of things to try even though I think it can be something that is not as easy as it sounds.

G’day my friend from down under!
