Does Stem Cell Therapy work for Neuropathy?

Are there any advances in regenerative medicine that address neuropathy in the legs? I am not satisfied with answers of, "We don't know what causes it and there are no remedies." that I get from my neurologist. They don't even seem to care that they have no answers. Ideas please?

Hello @qvt, Welcome to Connect, an online community where patients and caregivers share their experiences, find support and exchange information with others. There is another discussion on this topic that you may want to read through the posts and learn what others have shared. I have idiopathic small fiber peripheral neuropathy and would love it if regenerative medicine had some solutions for neuropathy but I don't believe the science is there yet.

I shared a post in that discussion with links to a couple of articles on the status but it's from 2015-2016 --- https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/205638/

You might also find the following discussion helpful to learn what other members with neuropathy have shared helps them.

If I may ask, what symptoms do you have with your neuropathy and what kind of treatments have you tried?
