Hi @lincolned, Welcome to Connect, an online community where patients and caregivers share their experiences, find support and exchange information with others. There really is no cure so to speak for neuropathy but there are a lot of treatments to provide relief from the symptoms. It's good that you are investigating and learning as much as you can about treatment options and what other members have shared with their experiences. There is another discussion you might find helpful -- Member Neuropathy Journey Stories: What's Yours?: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/member-neuoropathy-journey-stories-whats-yours/

If you are looking for more information on neuropathy, here are 2 of my favorite sites for research and learning.
-- Neuropathy Commons: https://neuropathycommons.org/
-- Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy: https://www.foundationforpn.org/

I think most of us have wasted money on different treatments that provided little or no relief so it's good to do your research on whatever you are looking at. You might find the following discussion and sites helpful for evaluating different neuropathy treatments being advertised.

Do you mind sharing what you were searching for when you found Connect?

Hi, I’m sure your response and Connect will be very helpful, both physically and mentally. It’s great to have “an ear” thanks so much!

Hi, I actually found exactly what I was looking for…folks who are dealing with the same disease I am and hoping to learn from them and share what I know after 6 plus years.

Hi @johnbishop. I've read many of your posts and they all offer helpful information. Thanks for the heads up on the scams to be aware of.
