Type 2 Diabetes: I have neuropathy in my feet and legs

Quite some time ago, I read a post on this website that has helped me a lot with neuropathy pain. I am pre-diabetic and I read on the aforementioned post that Mayo Clinic had done a study with diabetics and pre-diabetics suffering with neuropathy pain. They were treated with Alpha Lipoic Acid supplements, and had good results. So I have been taking ALA for the past year at night before bedtime, and this has helped me tremendously.

Hello Irh Peggy A. Lindgren, I am Sunnyflower. May I ask what dose of ALA you are taking and which type, RLA or SLA or both? I'm taking 6mg. once daily. Not sure yet if it's working. How long did it take for you to notice yours is working and would you say it's a pretty significant relief? My neurologist wants me to take the RLA/SLA combo so that is what I'm doing. I wish all the best for you and much, much relief!! Many blessings, Sunnyflower

What is the brand and how much are you taking?
