I went to a clinic that said I would get 50 percent improvement so I signed up for 24 treatments which involves 5 shots in ea foot followed by electric tens for 15 min. By the way they did a biopsy of my left leg before I started and at the end would do another biopsy and compare.
Half way through I complained that it was getting worse. He said "that's the nerves connecting" so I complained the last 12. Now I can't walk a city block without burning and pain.
The final blow was I called to see about the last biopsy and the dr said I didn't need one since the first biopsy showed I had normal connections. The last neurologist I went to said "I really don't think you have neuropathy I think you just have hot feet. I'm now on 600 mg of Gabapentin with no relief. I hope this helps with your decision.
By the way after seeing the medicare bill which was 1000 dollars per session I more understand???
