Good luck Hank on your decision, every major research entity including the worlds presigous universities have agreed that the brain is plastic and by practising Neuroplasticity, new neurons can be created, allowing the brain to repair itself. That the brain is plastic is the biggest revelation in over 200 years. I have spent probably 30 or 40 houra a week for many month researching medical research organisations and universities etc.to convince myself that neuroplasticity does work, BUT, if you dont believe that, with all your heart, it won't work. It is working for me , but I reckon it may take 2 years for me to get back to normal. I had an extremely itchy back problem. I visited my doctor who precribed ointment, and without give me relief , he referred me to a specialist, who prescribed a much stronger ointment, that had be applide every day for 2 weeks. As I could not apply myself, I had to pay for a nurse to come every day to do it, but it did not get rid of my angry itch. A couple of weeks on a hot sweaty night, it was driving mad atabout 2.30 am. I decided to use the method , outlined chapter 7, first Book. It meant ignoring the itch, and most definitely not scratching it. Of I never slept a wink, for the rest of the night. The next night itch continued but not as bad. The following night, the itch was there, but very minor. NOW LISTEN TO THIS: NThe next day my itch has totally has vanished. I get the occasinal urgre to scratch occasionally, but simply ignore it. It does take a bit of will power, but when you are getting results, even small improvements, the challenge is worth the effort and motivating as a result. My best wishes to you and your journey. The decision is yours Hank, as it is with me..

Barry, I spoke about hope in my previous post, but I did not mean to ignore ACTION. I did say that until a cure is found it's not bad to try any other thing that works to relieve one's pain. Taking action gives one a sense of purpose in the here and now along any hopes for some future possible cure.

So in your case you have managed very successfully to overcome your torturous back itch using your own will power. That is great and I congratulate you. My wife did the same thing. She has a horrible itching in her feet sometimes and she fights touching it or scratching it and it goes away after a time, occasionally it takes as long as a day or two.

But I am not so sure will power will work as well for everything. I am not sure it's as simple to eradicate the burning 8-9 level of PN pain in one's feet using just will power, is it? For one thing, what would you be willing yourself to do or not do? There is not an action similar to scratching where burning pain is concerned. So this is where the idea of using neuroplasticity to eliminate neuropathy loses me. I'm not particularly bright, but I am open minded and hope to understand this sometime.

Best to you and thank-you Barry, Hank
