I forgot to mention that I had also developed Neuropathy in my toes/feet. I am searching for a cure for this also. Several years ago, a older guy mentioned that he had healed his Neuropathy by wearing magnetic insoles in his shoes. Is there a possibility that this could take care of it??

Hello @llmonfort, Welcome to Connect. I can understand how you must feel after working hard on lifestyle changes and eliminating diabetes only to have other health conditions pop up. It's good that you are searching and trying to figure out what will help. I shared my neuropathy story in the Member Neuropathy Journey Stories discussion here - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/310341/.

Here's some information I found from 2005 on magnetic insoles - "Magnetic shoe insoles did not effectively relieve foot pain among patients in a study, researchers report in the current issue of Mayo Clinic Proceedings. And the results indicate that patients who strongly believed in magnets had pain relief even if they were given false magnets to wear." --- Magnetic Insoles Do Not Provide Pain Relief, Mayo Clinic Study Reports: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2005/09/050925152632.htm
