I think there are probably a lot of things that factor into what I consider some hope or a chance of reversing any neuropathy. In my own case of having idiopathic small fiber PN with only numbness for symptoms and maybe a small amount of tingling, I think I have either stopped or slowed the progression of my neuropathy which the neurologist told me that I was facing.
I was actually thinking of reversing type 2 diabetes which I think could possibly reduce or eliminate the corresponding neuropathy symptoms from the diabetes - but then it's just my opinion. I did remember reading this article awhile back when I was trying to learn more about diabetic neuropathy as it might relate to my pre-diabetic diagnosis.

Thanks, but for starters this article was in 2002. Second, in the first paragraph "There is no treatment to reverse the neurologic deficit of this disease manifestation....." I've tried several light therapies. All have failed. At this point I'm just looking to decrease the daily pain, even partially. When the pain flares up during the day, what do I do??? Neuropathy Meds don't work. Pain meds don't work. Until the nerve pain calms down by itself, I am not a happy camper. To me it's all about the PAIN. What to do when the nerve pain flares up.
