This list is really depressing. I have neuropathy in my feet from type 2 diabetes. I would say that would cover MOST of the neuropathy sufferers. Yet, where are the studies for a 70 year old to get relief when the pain flares up during the day.? All these freaking drugs don't work. There must be something!!!!

@julkun, Sorry to hear you have neuropathy from type 2 diabetes. I have been labeled pre-diabetic for most of my adult life without it getting any worse and it's only been in the past 4 years or so that I started being concerned about it. I started looking into diet and lifestyle changes after reading the following information by @LeeAase.

Reversing Type 2 Diabetes with a Low-Carb Diet: https://social-media-university-global.org/2021/02/reversing-type-2-diabetes-with-a-low-carb-diet/

We also have a discussion on the topic here -- Low-carb healthy fat living. Intermittent fasting. What’s your why?: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/low-carb-healthy-fat-living-intermittent-fasting-whats-your-why/

Have you tried making any dietary or lifestyle changes to help with your type 2 diabetes which may also help with your neuropathy?

CBDs allowed me to get off Oxy. It works, but takes trial & error. I tried 12 before I found what I consider the best: Nightingale Remedies CBD Relief Cream out of Portland, OR. Online. It combines CBD with about a dozen pain relieving herbs and MSM for easy skin absorbtion.
I combine this with a CBD oral tincture (currently using Tommy Chong's which works well.)The combo not only relieves pain but had dialed back the extent of my neuropathy.
(I'm 75)
